This bill would create a federal grant program to help farmers and agricultural schools pay to add rollover protection to older tractors that lack it. The Department of Agriculture would hire an outside organization to run the program, approve equipment and tractors, manage applications, and operate a website and hotline.
Farmers, ranchers, agricultural schools (vocational schools, colleges, and high schools), and students who work with tractors as part of their training.
Tractor rollovers are a leading cause of farm deaths and injuries, and many older tractors lack modern protective frames and seatbelts. Retrofitting could reduce those risks, but funding limits mean only a certain number of tractors could be helped each year.
