It's called All the shots and that would be. An Yway thank you very much for coming into the studio this evening we'll be hearing more from Richard and ritual 3 ite the program but on to what is probably the most important issue when it comes to farming as see if to everyone working in our agriculture industry features faces more risks than most when it comes to their daily work on predictable livestock dangerous gases and heparin machinery all have the potential to cause serious injury or worse this evening we're going to hear from 2 farmers Wallace Gregg and George has let both how bravely agreed to tell their stories for Wallace It's everything. Others worst nightmare his son fell out of his tractor and was in a just coma we'll hear Wallace the story later on but 1st George Hazlitt was a part time sheep farmer and Claude a the father of one says farming was in his blood from the moment he was born 45 years later he was left fighting for his life after being overcome by slurry he woke up on able to speak or move. I visited George at the time with his wife and son Matthew and asked him about the day that changed his life forever. Realized there was. A should look what they might. Get might. Wonder over the kid gets a one left field myself and fumes the most meaning get me so to the class to this here. I was so costs will stay. Back on this he had good these clowns placed but by that they are over the my I don't burn down anymore because it was covering from laughter was just told to me I was so our own conscious on top of. What I had on was bored brought to come 3. Mikes of thank. You for strong or have been lonely or. She just don't fit in but this year the cure I got. Double portion of what to most. Gas small salute both oh no it really happened for 4 weeks and the gossip and Belden up and as you say and previous years you had just put it straight out on to the faces this year you just wait it away it waited about 4 weeks and then that was enough to bring not goth level up but we bet last thing my hip was gas I just was saying can get those of mikes and get to No one on. The gas fools last thing in my main No one told me flu was and he said that because. Sad the campaign didn't realize something was happening and what mi g. Thank or what came over you thought you know what I think I'm being overcome by fumes was given breath. Just was just filled to folly may have felt for me I just felt I was going to pass so it to I wanted to the Shias who had. Both a dome or brick getting back up again and were taken to hospital and quite a bad way was the point for me breathe them was just just baby. And maybe it was. Their asses and on the boat me back to say don't. Think of the Soto boat. I woke up see. See. They will go up on a Tuesday. Just the baby. For. The world was full was to was to him but there of was the nurse to save me it all pain as he was I couldn't speak. Nor from whom it was just show tif in the old way cope you must been very confused as to why you couldn't speak and that was obviously because you had been starved of oxygen. Was fake you know. The is. Thing a long sleep that they need to do is the beeping went on all 8 try in May was they were get married to the bear then was my the way the. Chair been through the. Bike You know but the was was a lake of rules I know one way that was more. A bird told me but they want the consciously given that but. The beat being their mom. Shaken they get just. A was one to sleep on a step then for Sam 10 days and journey they had on them. Being like the day I'm. Told that I said in May way 1st that. There was frayed love the hope when with. The voters told really. Way the secam Day attack out them no because they had been open for they ears who. But. After breaking all for the sake of thing a was par or so maybe phone was no no oh no purty even left me at all for the Bay It couldn't couldn't. Couldn't. Talk. Me still couldn't. Real. Me. I just was really fired. On him but he could be schools. It was George his telling his story and George has had a very very long road to recovery and fact he's been a year and rehabilitation and George George has recovered some of the space. And also he as doing really well trying to get up and. And there's also a little bit more to that story because George's father he came to his son's rescue that day and he tried to get him out of the shed and get my to might then he too was overcome by fumes there luckily enough George's father he made a full recovery very very quickly but as you heard there George not only had the initial. Relapse whenever he got the fumes but he then relapsed again in hospital where he was in a coma for 17 days and I want to thank George and his family for allowing me into their home that day so he could tell me his story. Kamila from the Health and Safety Executive fear in studio with me and definitely food for thought there slurry as of such a dangerous substance on a combat a silent killer. Thank you 1st for invite me here today and it's very important that we have just heard George a story and as anyone can hear less and about the radio interview with our George has not fully recovered and I don't think he ever well is sadly am Georges is not isolated Unfortunately I have mapped humorous farmers he have had what farmers would say at touch with Larry am as you can hear from George sussed on a touch that per mom has to live like that for the rest of his life. Rehabilitate and the silent killer that's what slurry is. And you have to be very careful working around it George said that he knew whenever I was spoke to him at length that day he was telling me he was brushing a bite that day he had gone to his sheep sale his wife it's his wife said that I had to be home to go to a barbecue and he said he knew this Larry had to go right and he was just busy and he knows himself he said I was busy and I was trying to be a 1000000 different things at once and not unfortunately as a farmer's life. It is the farmer's life it's a lot of pressure am it's one of the most the interests industries in Northern Ireland if not the most dangerous You said at the start of the program Michaela. Talks a gas is here that we're talking about you've predictable animals you have big machines this is a day interest business on Sadly George has been affected very seriously bad. What happened and George's key s. He was very busy that particular day it was so much I am there was no wind that day he said and his interview there are 11 Meijer saying that when wrong that particular day he left sheep in the shed and start to die in a shed like law any human being whether Hart is going to run in to translate of the month and start to go dine on George went into transceivers animals and sadly he was then overcome with the gas am most slurry instance our sequence of events so there's a number of things that went wrong in that key s. And really thoughts as an investigator and Health and Safety Executive and that's what we would be looking for the key things the cause the sorry incidents because that's what I'm going to ask you because when these instance occur with George an air ambulance was called an ambulance was called and Health and Safety Executive What do you do step by step whenever something like that happens the 1st thing we do we want to be classed as 1st responders like Rosie here from p.s. And I am but we would take precedence over an investigation of an instant in a workplace so the 1st thing that we do is well I'm in the agriculture for a team I would attend such an incident saying. As an aside farm and agriculture is so different from any other business it's nearly like an extension of the home would you agree Richard yes you know it's it's it's an advantage on the problem because if you have an ox and you're never away from. Again because you've got to go on leaven and that's a big difficulty for people is that it's a complete anomaly that the agriculture industry and that it is supposed to be a business but you're getting 90 year old ground. Running a bite and little toddlers you know how to run the farm and that's that's not entirely wrong as just it's a real anomaly but it does make you maybe more comfortable in that environment. Which can lead to maybe mistakes yes on those those 2 people would be those 2 types of people those each groups would be are vulnerable groups you know the virus the older farmer those $65.00 plus and then the smaller children you know am so you know in George's k.s. Though there was a there was a few things that had been wrong and not key as I would urge farmers when Max and slurry to follow r.c.f. System of work watches you know max on a windy day get all your animals out of the shed open all the Doors fan out as much as possible start the pump and stay out of there are no need to go back and stay out for 30 minutes and as George said he actually had left his slurry for a while I was I investigated an instant there recently where the farmer left the story for over a year 30 minutes is not long enough you need to be stand I did are for on are maybe more you need to do and hang on like Risk Assessment you need to think a part of you know is there is an affluent going into your tank is are all those things that could affect the gas and you know increase you might have gas given off it so so the interest and I know that we've looked at some of the figures that you've got there have. Likely been no farm deaths this year in 2019 and but there have been slurry deaths and you said high many in the last 5 years did you say there have been there have been 2 sorry fatalities in the last 5 years in Northern Ireland but we don't have and those figures slurry incidents so something like that say George. With that been recorded no no then why is that not recorded sadly unfortunately we do not get all of these incidents reported Dawson Houghton Safety Executive. Very strongly about this that a farmers would place report also were not there to stop you Farman or not there are to day harm to your business or your family but if we knew where the problems lay We would be able to. Educate people who help farmers more would you record the incident we we would be able to you know if we had better reportedly would record Ok we've like records Camilla thank you very much for that will hopefully be hearing from you later on in the program and if you have a view on that or you want to discuss anything that's happened to you it's text and on it 1771 but it's time to take a look at the stories that the making the farming headlines this time with agriculture journalist Chris McCulloch before we start out of going to be better Christmas cheer for you have v.a. Oh my goodness what have you got me something nice for Christmas well known 1st of all maybe I should say here you've got your Christmas decorations up and is now you're in December. And I come on stop being a big. Guy when I say left the heists did you put my No 8 volunteered to great because I was put in the decorations up well on the same doors Christmas as you know I would talk to farmers and there's a northern quite often on the feedback for this we show is quite positive. Create stuff farmers say they like the variety of stories and like the tones on the on the news on that also like your ball a minute trying Owen that there I am trying to mask the don't say that like my Bowman is trying just. Looking to say I have the 1st story I have here as a warning from the Department of Agriculture for farmers to be on the lookout for Neighbors say this right Cup Prien arthritis and Keppel latest some Lisa and it's a disease a notifiable virus disease and goats and is the 1st ever kiss has happened on a farm and country Londonderry and the department surgeon farmers to be on the lookout for those viruses a worldwide fires was never been here before but we've had one key as farmers have to be looking out for us how does that spread all causes a viral disease or keeps growing the goes from go to go as far as I know but also the mean signs of as lameness caused by the arthritis and though in the older animals and the goats are in fact an early. It's roomy and virus positive for life well not so good no that is not good at all and as you say it's the 1st piece here yes for really worry and really we're in a date and the department is saying farmers really must look out for us and it is a notifiable disease they have to tell the Department of they see any symptoms of us. And their goat herds and as the goat automatically put dynamics in one that does as far as I know yes a house to go Ok anything else that's caught your eye Creswell indeed as you know I was over there a technical show where I'm going to go some machinery a lot so I heard the last stone heights I walked over 20 kilometers in 3 days 20 miles or in 3 days just to see what was happening but some of the papers here have picked up on one of the innovations that was actually out t
