Staff writer
LE MARS — It’s not like they are not aware
of the dangers inherent in their work.
Iowa farmers take precautions and are
sensitive to the need to be careful, especially
at busy times like harvest, according to Iowa
State University Extension and Outreach field
agronomist Leah Ten Napel of Le Mars.
“I think many farmers are aware of safety
issues and do their best to mitigate those risks,
but accidents still happen,” Ten Napel said.
