NY Forward Business Safety Plan Support for (Dairy/Livestock/Crop) Farms

June 10, 2020


New York state requires businesses to have a specific business safety plan in place during the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes all farms, both food and non-food producing. In addition, a well-written and executed business safety plan will help reduce business liability risk during and after the pandemic. A Cornell Task Force recently developed materials to directly support farms in the plan writing process.

This webinar, led by Extension specialists, will walk farmers through the need for and process to complete a safety plan as is required by all businesses for compliance with NY Forward, demonstrate project tools develop by Extension to write and complete a plan, and share curated resources specific to dairy, livestock and field crops.
