The State Emergency Service of Kharkiv Region reminds of fire safety rules during harvest

✔ Do not burn stubble, dry grass, and crop residues.

✔ Do not smoke or use open flames near fields and grain fields.

✔ Before harvesting, mow and hedge the fields around the perimeter, especially those bordering forests, roads, and settlements.

✔ Break up large grain fields into separate areas with firebreaks and plowed strips.

✔ Provide the fields with a supply of water, primary fire extinguishing agents, and determine the procedure for action in case of fire.

✔ Before starting work, check the equipment for proper operation, especially the electrical equipment and fuel system.

✔ Equip agricultural machinery with fire extinguishers, shovels, and other primary firefighting equipment.

✔ Do not refuel the equipment while the engine is running.

✔ If a fire is detected, immediately call 101 and, without putting yourself in danger, start extinguishing the fire using primary means.

Take care of your harvest, nature and your own life!
