Practically all involved farm family members. The major causes of childhood deaths on farms are tractors and machinery (75%), falls or collapses (17%) and drowning (8%).

9 Farms are a high risk environment for children, young persons and for visiting children. There is therefore a major responsibility on the farmer to ensure that the risks posed to children on the farm are assessed and controls are put in 2: CHILDHOOD DEATHS (2006 - 2015)Tractors: 8,33%TOTAL: 24 TOTAL: 37 Machinery,Trailers,Equipment: 10,42%Drowning: 2,8%Falls, collapses: 4,17%Others: 4,2%Tractors, FarmVehicles: 57,29%Machinery: 37,19%TOTAL: 194 Drowning/Gas: 20,10%Livestock: 26,14%Falls fromHeight: 20,10%FallingObjects:Collapses, 14,7%Timberrelated: 13,7%Electrocution: 3,2%Crushed bymachinerypart: 14,38%Struck bypart ofm/c: 1335%PTOE ntanglement: 411%Fall from m/cmechanism: 4,11%Fall from m/c: 2,5% !
