Update to Agriculture Equipment Symbols Standard

International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has approved five work item proposals to update standards that are used for determining symbols used in machinery for agriculture and forestry, tractors and powered lawn and garden equipment. American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) reports the standards, (ISO 3767-1, -2, -3, -4 and -5), will be updated by a group of volunteers from various countries who will review comments. The meeting is scheduled for February 22-23 in Paris, France. ASABE says, " . . . the volunteers will work to enhance, update, clarify and include additional symbols not currently included in the current edition of the standard."
