A new report shows fewer Indiana farm-related deaths in 2011 than the previous year. The Indiana Farm Fatality Summary compiled by Purdue University shows 16 people died from accidents on farms last year. That's down from 23 in 2010. The report also says there were no child deaths for the first time since 1998. Farming has traditionally been responsible for the highest number of work-related deaths in the Hoosier State.
