W hat a year it was for ASHCA! We continue to grow beyond the formative ideas and aspirations of our organization’s creation six years ago. The maturation was seen in shared values, creative ideas,

new program initiatives, strong partnerships, financial stability, and improved marketing and communications, all capped off with a conference of national significance. Your Board of Directors has engaged in many robust conversations and planning sessions to set the stage for a strong future. It’s been an enjoyable and rewarding year to be Chair of the Board!

This report will provide details of the year’s milestone events. From my vantage point, the attributes of success were associated with our “Raising Safety” theme of the 2013 North American Agricultural Safety Summit. Behind the scene we asked the questions of ourselves and others:

• How can we raise the bar on what is an acceptable level of safety in agriculture?

• How do we raise the profile of worker safety – in the Board room, among the field laborers, on the tractor?

• Who are the people with the influence and authority to raise safety concerns among underserved populations?

• What would it take to get farmers, producers and agribusiness owners to integrate safety into everyday practice such that it becomes part of their DNA, not just a program or a slogan?

• How do we raise funds to support safety initiatives – offering financial support through grants as the spark plug to adopt new safety behaviors?

Looking forward, please join us as an ASHCA member or donate to our Safety Grants Program as we launch new initiatives and extend our “Raising Safety” message.

Sincerely,

William J. Nelson, Chair

2013 AG SAFETY SUMMIT OBJECTIVES ACHIEVED! RAISING SAFETY

T he 2013 North American Agricultural Safety Summit, an unprecedented gathering of industry leaders and safety experts, set the scene for major safety funding announcements and stimulated collaboration for safer

work environments for the men, women and children who produce our food. The event was held September 25-27 in Minneapolis and attendees included more than 250 individuals from 10 nations representing agribusiness leaders, farm organization representatives, producers, safety specialists, migrant worker advocates, researchers, educators, insurers and the media. There were 13 corporate sponsors, 33 partner organizations, 82 speakers (17 plenary), 74 abstracts with poster presentations, seven new “best practices” videos, 15 genius bars sessions, 16 learning stations, 25 exhibits, 18 breakfast roundtable topics, and two networking receptions. The event was a mix of knowledge, inspiration and networking to enable participants to influence the adoption of safety practices in their home / work settings.

The keynote presentation by US Department of Agriculture Deputy Under Secretary Anne Bartuska, PhD, set the stage for acknowledging the complexity of modern-day agriculture, global trade considerations, and the federal government’s role in supporting wide-scale agricultural safety endeavors. Dr. Bartuska announced the USDA’s commitment to the next generation of farmers, earmarking $600,000 to make safety training available for youth working in production agriculture. “Safety first” as a corporate social responsibility was the theme of the presentation given by Carl Casale, President of CHS Inc. His presentation was capped with a major announcement: CHS has “committed $3 million to a national agricultural safety initiative intended to keep the next generation safe as it feeds a growing world population.”

Dr. John Howard, Director of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, commented on how ASHCA has “blossomed” since 2007 and expressed gratitude for public-private sector partnerships in identifying best safety practices for North American agricultural workers. Sustaining a safe workforce was addressed by Frank Gasperini, Executive Director of the National Council of Agricultural Employers, who stated, “inside the best companies, safety and daily pursuit of excellence becomes part of the corporate DNA of every employee.” Deborah Atwood, Executive Director of

AGree, gave a glimpse into the future of worldwide agricultural trade and consumer influence on food production practices and noted the importance of immigration reform policies in safeguarding a vulnerable workforce. Farm Foundation President Neil Conklin recalled that his organization served as the catalyst for upstart activities for ASHCA and described their newest initiative, “Dialogue on Food and Agriculture in the 21st Century.” Emerging trends in production agriculture were also highlighted by David Darr of the Dairy Farmers of America whose organization has specific programs for helping producers reduce their carbon footprint. An inspirational

panel presentation featured Barbara Mainster, Executive Director of RCMA, Lourdes Villaneuva, migrant worker advocate, and Florida avocado grower Medora Krome. They described the RCMA (Redlands Christian Migrant Association) in Florida that provides childcare for 8,000 migrant

and rural poor children annually and how its governance structure includes strong representation of Florida fruit and vegetable growers.

The Agricultural Safety Summit also featured an awards luncheon honoring three individuals. US Senator Tom Harkin was given a Lifetime Achievement award and delivered his acceptance message to attendees via videotape. Two Distinguished Service Awards were given to physicians who were pioneers in agricultural disease research - Dr. Dean Emanuel medical director emeritus of the National Farm Medicine Center in Marshfield, Wisconsin and Dr. Jim Dosman of the Canadian Centre for Health and Safety in Agriculture at University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon.

Evaluation feedback from attendees was very positive with most noting this was an excellent opportunity to interact with experts and to network with new and potential partners in farm safety endeavors.

STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS OF THE2015 ANNUAL ASHCA BUSINESS MEETING

WASHINGTON, DC

A SHCA’s Annual Business Meeting was held January 29, 2014, at the Intercontinental Clement Hotel of Monterey, California. Our meeting was co-located

with the Agricultural Personnel Managers Association (APMA) of California, allowing ASHCA members to become more knowledgeable of west coast agricultural safety issues. Facilitated by Kimberly Naffziger, Agricultural Specialist for The Zenith, the ASHCA team got the inside scoop on western agriculture production, meeting with representatives of the Growers and

Shippers Association, touring the inside of Taylor Farms processing facility where they were preparing and shipping broccoli, cauliflower and mixed veggie packets, then enjoying a warm welcome and lunch at a local winery that recently transitioned from vegetable production to vineyards. A two-hour open forum conversation was held between ASHCA and APMA representatives to compare and contract issues germane to safety and health of workers in agriculture. Opportunities for collaboration in the future were explored.

MAJOR GRANT SECURED The CHS Foundation Board of Trustees awarded a 3-year grant, totaling $650,000 to ASHCA as part of its “building national capacity in agricultural safety and health through leadership and collaboration” initiative. The grant application, endorsed by the ASHCA Board, included three primary activities: a) communications and infrastructure (with endowment); b) convening “mini-summits” of regional significance; and c) augmenting the safety grants program. Further, ASHCA will collaborate with other recipients of the CHS initiative to maximize the impact of CHS’s $3 million investment in agricultural safety and health which was announced at the 2013 Agricultural Safety Summit.

SAFETY GRANTS PROGRAM LAUNCHEDASHCA’s Agricultural Safety Grants Program is intended to provide financial support for safety and health activities based upon local/regional needs or emerging issues and is expected to foster new “champions” of worker safety and health. Funded projects will facilitate adoption of best safety practices by producers, hired farm workers and their families. The Safety Grants Committee, is chaired by Leon Graves of Dairy Farmers of America, and includes committee members Amy Liebman of Migrant Clinicians Network, Dan Hair of Workers Compensation Fund, Jan Klodowski of Agri-Services Agency, Brady Miller of Texas Cattle Feeders Association, Dennis Murphy of Penn State, and Aaron Yoder of University of Nebraska. The committee developed criteria for eligibility, proposed priority and topics, set instructions for applications and determined general operating procedures. They acknowledged this first year will be a “pilot test” for the grants program and welcome constructive comments to continually improve the process. Grant recipients will share their project results – successes and failures – with ASHCA

members and others – so lessons on how to “raise safety” will be widely shared. For grant application instructions and Frequently Asked Questions, go to www.ashca.org.

JOURNAL OF AGROMEDICINE TO FEATURE BEST AG SAFETY PRACTICES As a testament to the value of the knowledge shared at the Summit event, a dedicated issue of the Journal of Agromedicine is being published with full manuscripts, field notes, commentaries and 78 abstracts that were presented at the Summit event. Volume 19, Issue 2, will be online by late April, 2014. You can view abstracts of all articles for free at the Journal’s website, http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/wagr20/current.

BEST PRACTICES SAFETY VIDEOS During the six months preceding the Agricultural Safety Summit, ASHCA members and partners prepared brief video messages (3-4 minutes) to serve as examples of “Best of the Best Agricultural Safety Practices” for Summit attendees. Sponsored by ASHCA, seven tapes were drafted by content experts, and then produced by the Marshfield Clinic Audio Visual Department. Each video provides a brief explanation of a high-risk problem, the stakeholders involved, interventions for safety, and a take-home message. These include:

• Entering Grain Bins with a Lifeline – by the Grain Handling Safety Coalition• “Proper training, use of an effective lifeline system and

adherence to procedural guidelines will greatly reduce the number of fatalities associated with grain bins.”

• Training Employees in Low Stress Cattle Handling – by Reg Steward, Farm and Ranch Safety and Health Association
