About this listen
In the second instalment of Agriland Media's series, Farm Safe, Farm Well, we explore the safe use of quad bikes on farms.
The use of quad bikes and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) has become increasingly common on farms across Ireland.
However, there has been a significant number of farm fatalities and serious injuries involving quads.
For many, including Kerry hill sheep farmer John Joe Fitzgerald, a quad is an essential piece of equipment.
The vice-president of the Irish Natura and Hill Farmers' Association (INHFA) told Agriland about an accident he had with a quad around 12 years ago.
The Farm Safe Farm Well series, produced by Agriland Media in conjunction with AXA Insurance, is funded by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM).
