Safety First in Farm Chemical Use in Winnipeg
Safety experts from Manitoba stress protective gear and proper handling of crop protection chemicals. Wear eye protection gloves and a respirator, cover arms, and wash thoroughly after work. Maintain gear, stock replacements, and launder protective clothing separately to avoid exposure. Respect for chemicals remains the core message.
