Safety awareness program for farm kids returns

A safety initiative for farm children is being brought back after a successful launch last year.

The BASF Safety Scouts program gives out kits that include an adjustable child-sized safety vest, safety-themed activity and colouring sheets, and badges.

Last year, more than 2,000 kits were sent out to farm families across the country, said BASF Canada Agricultural Solutions.

Southern Alberta farmers are putting research into practice, pushing ahead traditional seeding times by months for spring wheat and durum.

“We believe in supporting the long-term health and safety of farming communities across Canada,” said company spokesperson Nicole McAuley.

Another 2,000 kits will be given out this year. To register for a kit, visit the BASF website.
