Defective Farm Equipment Injuries
Farm machinery manufacturers have a legal responsibility to ensure their products are safe. But when profits come before safety, workers get injured. Three common types of farm equipment defects include:
- Manufacturing Defects
Loose or missing fasteners and other defects that result from mistakes during the assembly process can cause severe—or even fatal—injuries.
- Design Defects
Products designed without proper safety guards, shutoff switches, and protective enclosures put agricultural workers at risk.
- Marketing Defects
Every year, farm workers are injured by equipment that lacks necessary instruction manuals or product labels.
Depending on the case, a variety of parties may be held responsible for defective farm equipment injuries, which may include companies that design, sell, lease, or furnish equipment to farmers.
