Engaging Farm Safety and Manure Management: Innovative Teaching Methods in Action

The agricultural industry consistently has the highest risk for occupational injuries and fatalities.  This session will share some proven techniques for making changes to farm safety practices and manure management that could positively impact generations to come.  We will explore dynamic and interactive teaching methodologies that could be adapted for use in at your facility and in your training programs.  These methods employ activity-based learning, where participants have the opportunity to learn, apply and discuss real-world scenarios in a safe environment.
