Structure Fires – Cultivating Caution

May 13 at 11:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT

Farm structures present unique and often underestimated fire risks, from faulty electrical systems in aging barns to spontaneous combustion in hay and grain storage. This session covers fire prevention strategies for farm buildings and outbuildings, what farmers should and should not do in the critical minutes after a structure fire breaks out, how rural response times affect outcomes, and practical steps you can take right now to help firefighters help you – including maintaining clear access lanes and keeping updated property maps on file with your local fire department.
