“…The methods implemented for exposure assessment as mapped out in this scoping review are in agreement with those determined in previous reviews [6,7]. Besides the simple description of these methods, our study offers a broader overview of the work done in assessing residential exposure to agricultural pesticides in recent years and provides new insights.…”

“…Given these major issues, it seemed interesting to give an overview of why and how pesticide exposure of residents has been studied so far in the scientific literature. A partial inventory of approaches assessing residential exposures has previously been conducted in two articles, published in 2005 and 2015 [6,7]. The results showed that exposures to agricultural pesticides had mainly been approximated by spatialized indicators generated using Geographic Information Systems (GIS).…”

Assessment of residential exposures to agricultural pesticides: A scoping review

The assessment of residential exposure to agricultural pesticides is a major issue for public health, regulatory and management purposes. In recent years, research into this field has developed considerably. The purpose of this scoping review is to provide an overview of scientific literature characterizing residential exposure to agricultural pesticides and to identify potential gaps in this research area. This work was conducted according to the JBI and PRISMA guidelines. Three databases were consulted. At least two experts selected the eligible studies. Our scoping review enabled us to identify 151 articles published between 1988 and 2019 dealing with the assessment of residential exposure to agricultural pesticides. Of these, 98 (64.9%) were epidemiological studies investigating possible links between pesticide exposure and the onset of adverse health effects, principally cancers and reproductive outcomes. They predominantly used Geographic Information Systems and sometimes surveys or interviews to calculate surrogate exposure metrics, the most common being the amounts of pesticides applied or the surface area of crops around the dwelling. Twenty-six (17.2%) were observational measurement studies conducted to quantify levels of pesticide exposure and identify their possible determinants. These studies assessed exposure by measuring pesticides in biological and environmental matrices, mostly in urines and house dust. Finally, we found only eight publications (5.3%) that quantified the risk to human health due to residential exposure for management purposes, in which exposure was mainly determined using probabilistic models. Pesticide exposure appears to be largely correlated with the spatial organization of agriculture activities in a territory. The determinants and routes of exposure remain to be explored to improve the conduct of epidemiological and risk assessment studies and to help prevent future exposures. Improvement could be expected from small-scale studies combining different methods of exposure assessment.

“…Another aspect of potential importance is the application and use of pesticides and/or fertilizers during monitoring and sampling, an issue analyzed in five studies in this review [28,33,37,39,45] (Table S3). Although this literature review is not focused on pesticide exposure, their assessment is of fundamental importance in agricultural settings and has already been deepened in different literature review papers [23,[76][77][78][79]. Many commonly used pesticides indeed have a high potential toxicity, and even low-dose exposures can lead to adverse effects on human health, resulting, for example, in (i) increased risk of cancer; (ii) neurodegenerative diseases; (iii) impaired neurological development in children; and (iv) adverse respiratory outcomes (e.g., asthma morbidity, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and reduced lung function) [80].…”

Studies on air quality in rural environments are fundamental to obtain first-hand data for the determination of base emissions of air pollutants, to assess the impact of rural-specific airborne pollutants, to model pollutant dispersion, and to develop proper pollution mitigation technologies. The literature lacks a systematic review based on the evaluation of the techniques and methods used for the sampling/monitoring (S/M) of atmospheric pollutants in rural and agricultural settings, which highlights the shortcomings in this field and the need for future studies. This work aims to review the study design applied for on-field monitoring campaigns of airborne pollutants in rural environments and discuss the possible needs and future developments in this field. The results of this literature review, based on the revision of 23 scientific papers, allowed us to determine (i) the basic characteristics related to the study design that should always be reported; (ii) the main techniques and analyses used in exposure assessment studies conducted in this type of setting; and (iii) contextual parameters and descriptors of the S/M site that should be considered to best support the results obtained from the different studies. Future studies carried out to monitor the airborne pollution in rural/agriculture areas should (i) include the use of multiparametric monitors for the contextual measurement of different atmospheric pollutants (as well as meteorological parameters) and (ii) consider the most important boundary information, to better characterize the S/M site.

“…Ces auteurs ont aussi montré que dans les résidences à moins de 750 mètres des champs, pour chaque augmentation d'environ 4 000 mètres carrés de cultures, la détection d'herbicides dans les poussières augmentait de 6 %. Ils ont confirmé que les pesticides étaient moins fréquemment détectés dans des résidences en zone urbaine (16 % des résidences) que dans les poussières de résidences rurales (61 % des résidences) ; les concentrations d'herbicides étaient globalement 2,5 fois plus importantes dans les résidences en zone rurale (Aschan, 2015). La distance aux sources d'émission de pesticides ressort aussi comme un déterminant important pour expliquer les différences de présence et concentrations de substances actives mesurées dans l'air des résidences ou dans le corps humain.…”

Pollution Atmosphérique

RésuméQuelles sont les réalités qui se cachent derrière le chiffre de 8 000 décès par an dans la France rurale, annoncé par l'institut santé publique France ? À quelle exposition est soumise cette population rurale devant faire face à des émissions polluantes diffuses, nombreuses et variées ? La définition même de l'exposition est plus complexe que celle qui serait réduite à une simple information chiffrée sur la pollution ambiante issue d'un modèle. En effet, le monde rural est complexe et varie énormément en fonction des caractéristiques topoclimatiques, il est souvent présenté comme le négatif de la ville et pollué par des émissions agricoles mais pas uniquement ; en particulier, l'espace périurbain, plus densément peuplé par des populations plus vulnérables, est souvent le siège des externalités négatives de la ville voisine. Mots-clésEspace rural, étalement urbain, émissions agricoles, exposition à la pollution atmosphérique. Abstract What is the reality behind the figure of 8000 deaths a year due to air pollution in rural France
