NCFH is seeking farmers and farm workers aged 18 to 75 years to complete a short 10-minute online survey about agrichemical spraying and quadbike use.

Participating in the survey will help researchers understand the extent to which quadbikes are used to apply agrichemicals, what agrichemicals are applied using this method and how the task may lead to injury.

 Ultimately this will contribute to preventing quadbike related injury or death.

If you spray agrichemicals on farm but don't use a quadbike, the NCFH still would like to hear from you.

A link to the survey can be found at https://bit.ly/3AhpW0q or scan the QR code in the image at the top of the page.
