Alright friends - show me your battle scars.

What’s the gnarliest injury or near miss you / ‘old mate’ have had on farm?

Augers? Balers? Angle grinders? Snakes?

@agvocate_au 🤣 The lengths one will go to promote the #PlantASeedForSafety message… self-sacrifice at its finest, hahahaha.

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasPL]

Thanks so much for sharing Lisette... *eye* like what you did there 😜 Happy National Farm Safety Week!! 🎉

[Agvocate_Au @agvocate_au]

Eye eye eye my eyes have sun damage from years working outdoors.
Hats yes, but prescription sunnies not.

Can't undo the cumulative impacts I have now.

But I can encourage YOU to make eye-sun care as important on farm as skin-sun care.

That’s right folks: Agricultural chemicals, not managed safely, are dangerous. So lock ‘em up, lift ‘em up, make sure they’re labelled and keep them welllll away from kids and anything else that might make them go bang in the night. ~Alex Thomas @AlexThomasPL #FarmSafetyWeek

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS #1: Start with safety data sheets and/or suppliers to establish baseline info about the ag-chemical before use - it just makes sense 👌🏼 @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 2: Watch the (wind and the) weather… if you get my drift. 😜 @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 3: Use good quality, registered products from providers of choice. (Did someone say… Syngenta?! 😜) @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 4: Keep your cabin chem-free, by changing out carbon filters on the reggo. @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 5: Clean that boom (baby!), and make sure you change out hoses BEFORE they go bust. @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 6: Throw it out thoughtfully, and think ChemClear, drumMUSTER and IBC return programs. @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 8: Make sure you’ve got speedy access to a clean water source + have a plan for something going pear-shaped. @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 9: Lock ‘em up, lift ‘em up, and keep them wellllllll away from kids… and anything that might make them go bang in the night. (Like batteries, and other ignition-y type things.) @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Syngenta ANZ @SyngentaANZ]

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS # 10: Ask the questions ‘What could go wrong? How? What are we doing about it?’ And take action! 🎬 @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

[Alex Thomas @AlexThomasPL]
