Description:
Mallee grain farmer Ian Hastings is passionate about ensuring that everyone who is working in the paddock during harvest knows how to operate the firefighting equipment.

However, Ian admits that if you don’t plan for an emergency, practice using your firefighting unit and train your team how to use it, you’re risking lives and potentially wasting a lot of money.

Fire management planning on farms involves protecting your assets and your people. Visit the CFA for more information about preparing your farm for fire.

Through the Victorian Government funded Making our Farms Safer project, the Victorian Farmers Federation (VFF) is providing farm safety advice and support for all Victorian farmers. Visit MOFS for more information https://www.vff.org.au/project/making-our-farms-safer/
