FARMING AND SAFETY
It should come as a distinct
shock to everyone to learn that
farming is the third most haz
ardous occupation in America.
Farmers have always known
that their job is a hard one,
calling for long hours, careful
planning, a keen understanding
of the close relationship be-1
tween nature and science that
are necessary to produce enough
food each year to feed more
than 150 million people—not to
mention much of the rest of the
world.
However, perhaps even the
farmer does not realize how
hazardous his job really is.
According to the Association
of Casualty Companies, which is
cooperating with the president’s
conference on industrial safety
to emphasize the need for great
occupational safety, one farmer
in every 15 is temporarily or
permanently injured while
plowing a field, milking a cow,
riding a tractor, or doing any
number of other chores.
Last year in America, more
than 327,0000 farmers suffered
disabling injuries on their jobs;
4,700 others weren’t so lucky.
They were killed by falls, ma
chinery, animals, or other “po
tential hazards.”
Statistics show that 22 percent
of disabling injuries on farms
occurred last year between Jan
uary and March, 26 percent
from April to June, 31 per
cent from July to September,
and 21 percent in the last quart
ter of the year.
Japan has seven people per
arable acre of land.
Japan had 106,000 foreign
visitors in 1955. _
