Bushfires and grass fires are a serious threat to a farmer's livelihood. Years of hard work can be wiped out in a moment.

Preparing yourself and your property to survive a bushfire requires thought and planning. You need to think about the physical and emotional effects a bushfire will have on you and your family.

Create your own Bushfire Survival Plan, in 3 easy steps. Making a choice when a bushfire threatens is too late. The majority of people in bushfires die fleeing their homes at the last moment. Don't wait until the last moment, create your Bushfire Survival Plan now.

It is important to understand the characteristics and behaviour of bushfires. They are influenced by vegetation, topography and climate.

If you live, work or travel in an area where bushfires can occur you need to be aware of where you can relocate to if you are threatened by a bushfire.

All people living in suburban fringe areas of Adelaide and regional South Australia are at risk of bushfire.
