Wednesday's tragedy at a Weld County dairy illustrates the dangers farmers, ranchers and agricultural laborers face daily.
Firefighters found six people dead in a confined space at a dairy near Keenesburg. The circumstances, as of this early writing, have not been made public.
The Daily Sketch says NEVER, EVER take agriculture for granted. Risks abound.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports workers in the agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting industries suffered one of the highest fatal injury rates in 2022.
Be grateful for the food on our tables. America is a land of plenty, thanks to its farming industry.
