NYS AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY SEEKS NY FARMS WITH SUCCESSFUL
FARM SAFETY PROGRAMS; $500 AWARDS

Applications Due: July 1, 2008

Agricultural Safety and Health are important issues to the New York State Agricultural Society. The benefits of a planned and meaningful farm safety program don't end with reducing simple injuries and down time; the rewards often include saving lives of family members and employees. The Society's Farm Safety Award recognizes New York farm operators who have unique and successful farm safety programs for their employees. Applications must be submitted by July 1 and include a summary of farm safety programs and activities. Nominees are evaluated, and up to 2 farms are selected to receive recognition and a cash award of $500 per farm, sponsored by Cargill, Inc.

To apply or nominate someone, visit www.nysagsociety.org (Awards & Contests, Farm Safety). Applications are available online or can be requested by contacting the Society's Executive Secretary, Penny Heritage, at 518-384-1715.

The Society's mission is to improve New York agriculture through education, leadership development and recognition programs; the organization has been strengthening our state's agriculture since 1832. For more information or to join the Society please visit www.nysagsociety.org.
