    Is there anywhere you can look up to see how farmers were killed or injured in farm accidents without names and locations being mentioned? Reading that would make me think how to farm in a safer way. Being attacked by livestock, slurry/agitating accidents, PTO accidents, falling from ladders/roofs and brakes/handbrakes not working properly on tractors must account for most i’d think.

    Seemingly no deaths from farm machinery last year.

    And one third of the deaths were from Co.Cavan.
