According to 2019 data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics\, the agricultural sector is the most dangerous in America. \nWhile most dairy farmers accept the risk involved in the profession and enjoy working with their hands\, farm safety should still be a top priority on dairy operations to help protect families and employees.
