At NewFields Ag, we know planting season is one of the most exciting and hectic times of the year. You’re racing the clock, watching the weather, and pushing hard to set up a great year ahead. But no matter how busy you get, safety has to come first.

Why? Because when you take care of your people, your equipment, and yourself, you’re setting yourself up for a successful harvest down the road. That’s why we’re sharing this reminder: Grow Safely, Harvest Success.

Quick Safety Tips for Planting Season

🌱 Check Your Equipment
Before you roll out, make sure everything’s working like it should. Check tires, brakes, lights, belts, and guards. A little time in the shop now can save you a lot of trouble (and downtime) in the field.

🌱 Take Care of Yourself
We get it! Planting means long days, but you can’t pour from an empty cup. Make sure you’re staying hydrated, grabbing some food, and getting a little rest when you can. Tired eyes and foggy brains can lead to mistakes.

🌱 Look Out for Each Other
Extra hands around the farm mean extra safety checks. Make sure everyone knows where they should be, what they should (and shouldn’t!) touch, and how to stay safe near equipment.

🌱 Stay Connected
Make a habit of checking in with your team. Whether it’s a quick call, a radio check, or a text, knowing where everyone is helps prevent problems before they start.

At the end of the day, farming isn’t just about what you pull off the field, it’s about the people who make it happen. From all of us at NewFields Ag, here’s wishing you a safe, smooth planting season. Remember: Grow Safely, Harvest Success. We’re rooting for you!
