tute will discuss how to recognize
and avoid many of the potential
farm related hazards. Mr. Frank
Muller, Chief of Cecil County’s
Emergency Management Services
will follow up with a discussion of
the resources available in Cecil
County should a farm related acci
dent occur. Union Hospital will
also be present to screen for skin
cancer, a common work related
health problem associated with
agriculture.
This year’s equipment demon
strations will include:
• The latest hay making equip
ment including all new disk mow
ers and round balers in action.
• A tractor comparison course
where qualified drivers can test
drive new tractor models from
Case-IH, Ford/New Holland, and
John Deere.
• Tractor/loader and skid loader
demonstrations to help you find
the machine that is right for your
farm.
• No-till drills tackling Fair
Hill’s rocky soils.
• An all day display of antique
tractor and equipment by the areas
many antique equipment
enthusiasts.
