Children's Safety on the Farm |
|
Farm and ranch worksites present lethal hazards to young children. According to data from the Canadian Agricultural Injury Surveillance Program (CAISP), from 1990 to 2000 there were 109 fatal agricultural injuries to young children (aged 1 to 6 years) in Canada. Over 84 percent of the children were related to the farm owner/operators. Of those killed, 79 percent were boys.
