The verdict

Agriculture runs at 111% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Farm labor contractors workplace, earning a grade C.

Agriculture: 5.0 TCR = 111% of Farm labor contractors BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Agriculture safety composite

Agriculture scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 53% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 44%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
