Farm Accidents

According to the National Safety Council, agriculture is one of the most hazardous industries in the United States. Each year farm accidents claim the lives of 200-300 children and cause thousands of injuries. Almost half of the accidents involve farm machinery. Dangerous chemical and pesticide exposure, faulty equipment or hazardous areas including silos, grain bins and wells can also cause injury. Injuries can include traumatic amputation, fractures, head injuries, asphyxiation, exposure to toxic levels of herbicides, pesticides and chemicals, and more.

If You've Been Injured On A Farm
In a 2005 survey, serious injury occurred at one out of five farms in Minnesota – a total of 13,000-14,000 farms. Farming fatalities are only second to mining in numbers. Although safety standards are required for farms and their machinery and equipment, many factors can contribute to the accidents that take place every day on farms.

To learn how to keep children safe on the farm, read this article from the University of Minnesota Extension Service. To read various publications on farm safety published by the University of Minnesota Extension Service visit www.extension.umn.edu.

What Former Clients Say

"One of the first things I asked when I finally woke up was, 'Was it my fault?' This terrible thing happened and Fred proved I wasn't at fault. I can't tell you what a relief that was to know that and to have someone taking care of the stuff like the billing and the insurance companies and the hospital when this happened. Fred really went the extra mile to prove our case."
