Farm Safety Stars Campaign to Protect the Next Generation

Farmers Weekly and AgriKids, have launched the Farm Safety Stars campaign, a new initiative aimed at improving farm safety awareness among children living and working in rural environments.

The campaign encourages children to become farm safety ambassadors through engaging activities such as quizzes and certificates, helping them understand risks associated with machinery, livestock, and chemicals.

Many Members work on or near farms and interact with rural families. Supporting this initiative aligns with our shared commitment to:

  • Reducing on-farm accidents, especially those involving children

  • Promoting responsible use and handling of agricultural inputs

  • Building a culture of safety that starts with education and awareness

Members are invited to share the campaign within their networks, explore its resources for outreach or training, and recognise the contributions of young safety advocates.
