For any plan to be successful during an emergency, everyone needs to be &#8220;on the same page&#8221;.\u00a0 By creating the plan together, all farm personnel will have input, and will understand their own roles and responsibilities.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The template is set up to be a resource for both the farm family\/staff and for emergency responders<\/li>\n<li>We recommend the producer shares the plan with their local fire department \/ first responders<\/li>\n<li>County EMS directors may be willing to input the plan information into the county GIS system so the 911 dispatcher has immediate access during an emergency call<\/li>\n<li>Insurance companies may offer a discount if a farm has a formal emergency plan<\/li>\n<li>Store a copy of your Farm Emergency Plan in a permanent accessible and marked location on the farmstead for use by first responders<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>NOTE:\u00a0 The Farm Emergency Plan Template was originally developed as a special project of Purdue Extension &#8211;
