In the final instalment of the Farm Safe, Farm Well series, we examine the supports available to farm families impacted by serious injury or sudden death.

For over a decade, Embrace FARM has provided practical and emotional support to farm families across Ireland who are faced with serious injury or sudden death.

The non-profit organisation was founded by Brian and Norma Rohan who live and farm close to Mountrath in Co. Laois.

The Farm Safe Farm Well series, produced by Agriland Media in conjunction with AXA Insurance, is funded by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM).

In the latest instalment of Agriland Media's series, Farm Safe, Farm Well, we meet a farmer who has changed his approach to farm work as he gets older.

Padraig Moran runs a beef and tillage enterprise with his son Eoin at Coorevin Farm in Borrisokane, Co. Tipperary.

While he has been farming all his life, Padraig has adjusted how he manages his tasks on the farm as his 65th birthday nears.

"Firstly, I've to be conscious of my age, I'm not getting younger, so I've to approach things an awful lot different than I used to," he said.

In this instalment of Agriland Media’s series, Farm Safe, Farm Well, we meet a farmer who suffered life-changing injuries 40 years ago after she became entangled in a power take-off (PTO).

Almost 40 years since she survived being entangled in a PTO shaft on her farm, Betty Taylor still feels lucky to be alive today.

On October 8, 1985, Betty and her husband, Joe, from Ballylooby, Knocklong, Co. Limerick, had brought a load of oats home for their beef cattle.

While Betty was crushing some oats, the loose jumper she was wearing got caught in the drive shaft which did not have a cover.

The young mother was then violently swung around the drive shaft repeatedly until the it eventually broke.

“Only for the PTO eventually broke, I feel I would have been killed,” she said.
