Farm Safety

Our mission is to increase safety awareness and provide educational resources to ensure the safety of farmers and their families. The KDA Farm and Home Safety Program conducts educational programs across Kentucky. Through the program's ATV Safety mock rescue, children learn the importance of safe choices. It is a lesson that can make a difference between life or death.

The Rollover Tractor Simulator program is the only one of its kind in the nation. It has a John Deere 4105 compact tractor bolted to a trailer 20 feet long and 8 feet wide. Push a button and the tractor turns over demonstrating the need to use the Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS). The simulator is sponsored by the Association of Equipment Manufacturers; Kentucky Fire Commission, Fire/Rescue Training Office, Dixie Firefighters Association, and Wayne Supply Agri-Business Division, Challenger Tractors; and the Kentucky Department of Agriculture.
