Your health is your most valuable asset, for your family, your farm, and your future.

What’s included:

Blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose and BMI checks
Hearing, vision, skin and breathing tests
Urine testing and agrichemical exposure screening
Respirator fit testing
Risk assessment for your work
Personalised advice and referrals.

AgriSafe 2.0: Help us build a new chapter!

We’ve received a major research grant from the Australian Government’s Medical Research Future Fund to improve and expand the AgriSafe program. That means we’ll be working closely with farmers, health professionals and industry partners to make sure AgriSafe is practical, useful and built around what farmers really need.

This matters because poor health doesn’t just affect you – it affects your family, your business and your community.

What’s coming?

A Steering Committee of farmers, health professionals and NCFH team members who will guide the program
Farmer interviews which will help shape how health checks are delivered
A pilot program launch in late 2026
Full rollout across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland expected in 2027.
