Abstract

North Carolina farm families, emergency services, and fire departments do not always have sufficient training to respond to on-farm emergencies. The main barrier to preparedness is lack of awareness of these needs. We recommend improved emergency response through collaborative education using AgriSafe of North Carolina and Certified Safe Farm North Carolina, two programs geared toward safety training.
