In the most recent community needs assessment residents of Christian County determined that there was a need for increased agricultural and natural resources literacy.  Through educational programs youth of Christian County are able to see various hazards related to agricultural work and learn how to overcome those situations and avoid dangerous situations.  

Through partnerships with local agencies, you were able to go through various stations related to electricity safety, ATV safety, grain safety, tractor safety, fire safety, water safety, sun safety, and basic first aid.  Youth participated in experiential learning opportunities to provide an in-depth look at the best safety practices in the agricultural community.  

736 individuals participated in the Christian County Progressive Agriculture Safety Day.
