Deadly Week on Wisconsin Farms
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 07/06/2015

Two separate farm mishaps have resulted in fatalities during the past week in Wisconsin.

In Chippewa County, two Bloomer-area men died Thursday in the town of Woodmohr after becoming overcome by the manure gas. Authorities say Jeremy Seibel and Rodney Seibel fell into a manure pit at their family farm while trying to retrieve a piece of equipment that had fallen into the lagoon.

On Friday, an Ellsworth man died in a tractor accident in Pierce County. A police report noted that Travis Anderson, 38, suffered from traumatic injuries, but did not say what exactly happened in the incident.

Paramedics took Anderson to a nearby helicopter landing zone and was pronounced dead a short time later by a medical examiner.
