IS YOUR FARM PREPARED FOR DROUGHT CONDITIONS?

Agricultural communities are at risk for a number of hazardous or emergency situations—natural disasters, biological disease emergencies and man-made or technological hazards (e.g., agrochemical spills, bioterrorism). Any of these can greatly
impact the health of people, pets and livestock, and cause property damage on farms.

Learn how to minimize the impact to you, your family, your animals, and your farm/business.

This website houses a database of factsheets, checklists, and other resources, to help rural communities prepare for and recover from a number of natural, biological and man-made threats.

Use the COLORED TABS ABOVE to find resources to help prepare yourself, your family, your animals, your family and your business for a variety of hazardous situations.
