Grain Bin Safety Week is launched this week (February 19th through February 25th).  Across the board, work still remains to reduce preventable grain entrapments and deaths associated with grain handling and storage.  Record crop yields and increased on-farm grain storage occurred during 2016.  More grain bins on farms and ranches can mean increased risk of grain entrapment, grain engulfment and other accidents if proper safe-work procedures aren’t followed. The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) reports that less than 7% of the nearly 770,000 grain bins on America’s farms are equipped with a harness and life line to prevent grain engulfment.
