MNFU has words of advice for the public
As the school summer holidays approach, the importance of keeping safe on Manx farms is being highlighted.
The Island has a lower incident rate than the United Kingdom, due in part to the smaller scale of farming here.
But people are being encouraged to be aware of their surroundings when stepping onto agricultural land this summer.
General Secretary of the Manx National Farmers Union, Andrew Cooper, has these words of advice:
