I appreciate how this site addresses the abundance of disabilities that individuals who work in the agriculture business experience. People in this industry put a lot of stress on their body and many are exposed to many potential injurious activities. This site gave a good overview of different difficulties that may be experienced and examples of solutions to the problems. Along with this, it also provides a background on assistive technology for people who may be unfamiliar with the concept.

"Hiring Americans with disabilities is not only the right thing to do — it is the smart thing to do.  As our country becomes part of an increasingly worldwide economy, skilled workers are in greater demand than ever.  And the technological revolution of the last fifteen years has given us unprecedented ways to incorporate the talents of all members of our society into the workforce."

U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao, Summit on Disability Employment Policy, 6/3/08
