National Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Agenda

The NORA Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Sector Council finalized this version of the National Agenda after considering public comments on the previous draft.

In 2008, the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) Agriculture, Forestry, and Fishing (AgFF) Sector Council released a national Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Agenda to be used by researchers throughout the United States. This plan was to guide research projects to fill high-priority knowledge and action gaps. The Agenda lists goals and priorities for work-related safety and health research in the AgFF sector. With the development of new technologies, procedures, and surveillance over the decade, the NORA AgFF Sector Council perceived a need for revised goals and clarification of the Agenda. This document provides updates to the background and goals of the NORA AgFF Agenda.
