Established in 2006 in NY, The National ROPS Rebate Program (NRRP) has provided 3,700 farmers across 27 states with rollbar retrofits. Rollbar protective structures (ROPS) are 99% effective in preventing injury or death in the event of an overturn when used with a seatbelt, and 70% effective when used without a seatbelt. Allen Gage of Forestville, NY, received a rollbar retrofit on his tractor (pictured) through NRRP and comments on the importance of ROPS, “I believe this program is a great and important program to the community, it saves lives and helps farmers with expensive cost of retrofitting their older farm tractors that vital to their farming operations, it gives farmers, farm families and farm workers a peace of mind that whoever is operating that tractor is safe.”.
