Challenges related to farmer mental health are complex and have far reaching implications for agriculture and local communities.
Early research suggests that people who come into contact with farmers regularly could play a key role in supporting farmer mental health.
This talk will explore how farmers can be reached by these trusted local “accidental counselors” to improve mental health outcomes.
