Some 200 farm inspections are set to take place as part of a campaign, with a special focus on safe working with vehicles and machinery.
Over 3,000 people attended this year's Crops and Cultivation open day at Teagasc Oak Park, Carlow, last Wednesday, June 28.
The HSA is set to begin a 'month-long, intensive' farm inspection campaign on Tuesday, May 2 focusing on tractors and farm machinery.
"I don't know anyone who has a quad bike that hasn't fallen off it," said former Leenane sheep farmer and former Mayo IFA County Chairman.
The HSA is currently considering approval for a safety device for quads which have been associated with a number of on and off-farm deaths.
