Canadian Agricultural Safety Week underway

Mar 16, 2026 | 3:46 PM

This is Canadian Agricultural Safety Week.

The Canadian Agricultural Safety Association sets aside the third week in March every year to put a focus on farm safety.

Each day will see a different focus area.

Monday will be rail and road safety.

Tuesday is for farm machinery safety.

Wednesday is for emergency preparedness, Thursday is for women in agriculture, and Friday is for Livestock Safety.

The association says it will mark the week by making all its online courses free for the entire month of March.
