Safety is key during the harvest!

As farmers continue to roll through the harvest a reminder to keep safety a top priority.

Robin Anderson the communications coordinator for the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association says it's important to be alert and stay focused.

"We're seeing longer hours, more fatigue, and rushing trying to get things off the field and into the bins before the weather turns. So, you know, with that in mind, we've got to make sure that anytime we're out in those fields or getting that machinery going, that we take the time to make sure we're prepared. That can be as simple as taking a look at our equipment, our machinery, and ourselves. Right. Are we stressed out? Are we fatigued? And how do we mitigate those hazards?"
