The National Library of Medicine (NLM) Tox Town Farm scene has been updated. Check it out if you're looking for possible environmental health risks on a typical farm or need information on agricultural runoff, feeding operations, or barns and silos.

The Farm joins previously updated Tox Town City, Town, and Southwest scenes with an updated photorealistic look that allows users to better identify real-life farm locations. Each scene was migrated from Flash to a HTML 5 platform so it can be viewed on a variety of personal electronic devices, including iPads, iPad minis, and tablets. All location and chemical information remains the same. 　

Regardless of where you live, check out the updated Tox Town for environmental health risks down on the Farm.
