Utilising farm injury data in the development of hazard and risk profiles for farming commodity groups.

The Australian Agricultural Health Unit provides agricultural industries and policy makers with farm injury information in an optimal format for use in injury prevention. Information is now more commonly presented as a hazard and risk profile associated with phases of agricultural production and work activities. To date there have been five industry-specific Hazard and Risk Profiles produced for the sheep, dairy, cotton, beef and horticulture industries.
