Clare’s representative on the IFA’s Farm Family & Social Affairs Committee says farmers have a responsibility to make sure children are aware of dangers in agriculture.
It comes as a new campaign has been launched to practice farm safety while school pupils are at home for the Easter holidays.
A number of tragic incidents that have taken place throughout the country in recent times have seen the IFA remind farmers to ensure safety protocols are in place.
