Fatality rates from 2003 through 2010 were generally 4–8 times higher than the overall rates in agriculture/forestry/fishing. Previous research has consistently shown a pronounced increase in the risk of fatal injury with age in the agriculture/forestry/fishing industry [Hanford et al., 1982; Hoskin et al., 1988; Myers, 1989, 1990; Kisner and Pratt, 1997; Fiedler et al., 1998; Hard et al., 1999, 2002; Mitchell et al., 2002; Meyer, 2005]. Previous studies have also suggested that older farmers are more likely to operate older tractors [Gelberg et al., 1999; Voaklander et al., 1999; Sanderson et al., 2006] and are not as likely to use protective devices [Wadud et al., 1998; Pickett et al., 1999; Hwang et al., 2000]. Tractor longevity suggests that older farmers will continue operating older tractors not equipped with rollover protective structures (ROPS) rather than purchasing new equipment [Myers et al., 2009]. Until this older equipment is removed from the workplace or retrofitted with ROPS, the high rates in the agriculture/forestry/fishing industry will likely remain unchanged.
