The University of Illinois extension has launched a new Web site resource on agricultural safety.

Called Agricultural Safety and Health, the site is part of the Illinois Network for Agricultural Safety and Health that works to promote and improve safety-intervention efforts. The site includes fact sheets covering a broad range of topics, such as safe manure storage, rollover protection, and mowing safety. The site also has information on all-terrain vehicles and farm-hazard demonstration equipment. To access the site, follow this link.
