Farm Medicine, Rural Health & Safety

National Farm Medicine Center

25 Years

The National Farm Medicine Center (NFMC) celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2006. Established in 1981 in response to occupational health problems seen in farm patients coming to Marshfield Clinic, the NFMC has focused on evolving issues in agricultural health and safety through its first quarter-century.

NFMC goals for the future include expansion of its competency in infectious disease research and rural and agricultural health and safety, as well as becoming an excellent resource for professional training in agromedicine and agriculture-related research. Anniversary activities
