September 15-21 is “ National Farm Safety and Health Week ”. Each year, this week serves as an opportunity to promote ways that farmers can protect their own health and safety as well as that of their employees and families.  This year, the National Farm Safety and Health Week organizers are promoting the following topics:  tractors safety, roadway safety, opioid misuse prevention, suicide prevention,  confined spaces safety, youth safety, and safety for women. Additional information on each of these topics is in the document attached. On-the-job hazards in Colorado are much broader than this list, so I would encourage you, if interested, to consider the topic(s) of most interest to your audience. The CSU faculty and professionals available for interview likewise have expertise in areas beyond those of the national themes.    Photo courtesy of: www.farmanddairy.com
