Safety: Apply It First
Program Boosts Awareness
ST. LOUIS. Mo. Mac
than 8,000 growers, dealers,
and other chemical applica
tors have requested free
“Safety: Apply It First” ma
terials, depleting the safety kit
supply only five months into
the year-long initiative.
Eight agricultural chemical
manufacturers joined faces
to start the “Safety: Apply It
First” program so they could
reach chemicil applicators
with important safety remind
ers during applications of the
carbamate and organophos
phate pesticides. The program
launched in November 1997.
“lf our safety kit fulfillment
is any indicator, this program
has done exactly what we
wanted it to raise safety
awareness,” said James
Kunstman, registration man
ager at Bayer Corporation and
member of the “Safety: Apply
It First” committee. "The re
sponse to this program has
been tremendous. We never
imagined that we would be in
an oversell situation so soon.”
Most kits have been or
dered via calls to the toll-free
number, while the rest can be

attributed to communicaiton
pieces and sales representa
tive presentations at dealer
and grower meetings.
The “Safety: Apply It
First” consortium is in the
process of manufacturing ad
ditional safety kits and orders
are still being taken. There
may be a slight delay before
kits are received because they
are on back order.
The success of this pro
gram can be attributed to the
efforts of the joint sales forces
and various communications
pieces that have raised pro
gram awareness.
“Obviously, chemical
handlers are concerned about
safety,” Kunstman said. “This
program is a success because
it helps them further the safety
initiatives in their businesses.
Growers also want to keep
carbamates and organopho
phates available because they
are important to their crops.
Raising the safety standard
during carbamate and organo
phosphate applications bene
fits die entire industry.”

ers and other chemical hand
