TREMONT (HOI) - It can be easy for farmers to become too comfortable when working in and around grain bins, but that can lead to a dangerous situation.
The Illinois Department of Agriculture, along with the state fire marshal, want Illinois farmers to set aside time to recognize grain bin safety week.
They ve dedicated February 21 through the 27 to do just that.
According to a 2019 report from Purdue University, the US had a five-year average of 58 agricultural confined space related injury and fatality cases documented. The first thing with grain bin safey is try to avoid going in the bin to begin with, General Manager at Tremont Coop Grain, Joe Logsdon said.
