According to the Natural Agricultural Safety Database, farm/agricultural accidents are up to 2.5 times more likely to result in an amputation than any other injury. Amputations can result in both physical and psychological effects, including not only limited mobility but also increased risks of depression, infections, and nervous system diseases.
Here are some of the most common causes of farm accidents which result in an amputation:
- Entanglement of clothes, gloves, shoestrings, long hair, or limbs in machinery which has moving parts;
- Entrapment by augers and combine-heads which lack proper safety guards;
- Crushing by heavy machinery;
- Infections from dirty machinery;
- Contact with toxic chemical substances or live electrical wires.
