It’s National Farm Safety Week, and Jim Wautier of Church Site Farms in Brussels says there are so many things going on at the farm at any point that safety has to be on the front of your mind. Wautier stresses extra vigilance when it comes to children on the farm.
Wautier, who operates a family dairy farm, also talks about the precautions they use when wrapping corn silage.
With fall harvest you’ll see larger equipment on the roadways, and Wautier says you’ll need to make sure you’re doing the right things like using turn signals and paying attention to slow-moving vehicle signs.
