A Wisconsin farm tragedy killed 29-year-old farmer Michael Biadasz and 16 cattle from gas poisoning. Unusual weather formed a “deadly air dome” in a manure tank, trapping toxic gases. His father, Bob Biadasz, said a rare mix of factors was fatal despite past safe tank emptying.
The Biadasz family lined tractors to remember Michael. The accident spurred talk of stricter manure tank rules. The National Agriculture Safety Database stresses proper ventilation and signs for livestock areas, pushing safety for workers and animals. It shows farmers’ risks and the need for prevention.
