The dashboard currently records 87 injury incidents and 17 fatalities in the farm sector so far in 2025. The Wide Bay region in Southeast Queensland has the highest recorded incident rate this year.
THE first real-time dashboard for tracking on-farm fatalities and injuries has been launched, giving the farming community, farm safety advocates, researchers and remote area medical personnel early insights into where and how agricultural incidents are occurring.
Developed by AgHealth Australia as part of the Ag Safety Data Net project, the Rural Media Farm Injury Dashboard draws on live media reports to give timely snapshots of incidents occurring on-farm, before official coronial or workers compensation data become available.
The Dashboard has been funded by the Rural Safety and Health Alliance, a partnership of seven Rural Research and Development Corporations*.
“This is a critical step forward in improving farm safety,” said Kerri-Lynn Peachey, a broadacre farmer in NSW and member of the AgHealth research team.
“By providing real-time insights into the types of incidents occurring on farms, we can better understand the risks and work together to prevent future injuries and fatalities in a timely manner. It’s a tool for awareness, education and ultimately, saving lives.
“As a farmer myself, I know how quickly things can go wrong. Farm injuries aren’t just a cost; they also result in a loss of production, impacting individuals, farm operations and rural communities across Australia. The Dashboard’s charts and heatmaps will help to inform farm safety initiatives by highlighting current risks and contributing factors,” Kerri-Lynn said.
The Dashboard allows users to customise infographics and heatmaps by date, injury type, age group, industry sector and location – making it a valuable tool for policy makers, industry bodies and community safety campaigns.
The tool tracks incidents from 2020 onwards, offering a broader view of trends over time. While data is predominantly based on media reports and is subject to change, it provides an early warning system that complements coronial and workers compensation reporting.
The Dashboard is now freely accessible online, click here to access.
Beef Central asked AgHealth Australia how confident the organisation was that a large – or even significant – proportion of farm injuries are in fact media-reported. Here is their response:
Due to known limitations, some fatalities and injuries are not captured in the data. Media monitoring is a useful tool for tracking farm-related incidents, but it depends entirely on what is reported by news outlets. As a result, many incidents especially in remote areas or those involving less severe injuries go unreported. The data gathered through media monitoring is unverified and should be considered an early indicator, not a complete representation. Historically, around 5–10% of fatal cases are not captured in the media and injuries are significantly underreported, as only the more serious cases requiring hospitalisation tend to make the news. Additionally, media coverage may be biased toward certain topics, such as incidents involving quads or side-by-side vehicles.
* The Rural Safety & Health Alliance is a collaboration of seven Rural Research and Development Corporations – AgriFutures Australia, Australian Eggs, Australian Pork Ltd, Australian Wool Innovation, Cotton Research & Development Corporation, Dairy Australia and Grains Research & Development Corporation – that coinvest in research to improve safety and health on Australian farms.
The Ag Safety Data Net is one of its key projects, administered by AgriFutures Australia and delivered by AgHealth Australia.
