SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Occupational Research Agenda 
(NORA) is a partnership program created to stimulate innovative 
research and improved workplace practices. The national agenda is 
developed and implemented through the NORA sector and cross-sector 
councils. Each council develops and maintains an agenda for its sector 
or cross-sector.
    Background: The National Occupational Research Agenda for 
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing is intended to identify the research, 
information, and actions most urgently needed to prevent occupational 
illnesses and injuries in the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing sector. 
The National Occupational Research Agenda for Agriculture, Forestry and 
Fishing provides a vehicle for stakeholders to describe the most 
relevant issues, gaps, and safety and health needs for the sector. Each 
NORA research agenda is meant to guide or promote high priority 
research efforts on a national level, conducted by various entities, 
including: Government, higher education, and the private sector.
    The first National Occupational Research Agenda for Agriculture, 
Forestry and Fishing was published in 2008 for the second decade of 
NORA (2006-2016). This draft is an updated agenda for the third decade 
of NORA (2016-2026). The revised agenda was developed considering new 
information about injuries and illnesses, the state of the science, and 
the probability that new information and approaches will make a 
difference. As the steward of the NORA process, NIOSH invites comments 
on the draft National Occupational Research Agenda for Agriculture, 
Forestry and Fishing. Comments expressing support or with specific 
recommendations to improve the Agenda are requested. A copy of the 
draft Agenda is available at https://www.regulations.gov (see Docket 
Number CDC-2018-0007).
