Responses to Adversity Faced by Farming Men: A Gender-Transformative Analysis

“…Globally, there is evidence that mental health services and information, along with mental health literacy, require further attention to effectively reach farming men and their families (Alston, 2012;Garnham & Bryant, 2014;Kennedy et al, 2014;National Centre for Farmer Health, 2016;Prévitali, 2015;Roy et al, 2013). This represents an important challenge for mental health promotion especially in the area of stigma reduction.…”

“…It is theorized that traditional masculine practices appeal to farming men due to their professional insecurity, relatively low education, and low political power (Campbell, Mayerfeld Bell, & Finney, 2006). Compared to non-farming rural and urban men, farming men are more likely to experience accidents, both fatal and non-fatal; high levels of psychological distress; suicidal ideation; and mortality (Alston, 2012;Garnham & Bryant, 2014;Kennedy et al, 2014;Prévitali, 2015;Roy et al, 2013). However, this international trend was not found in rural China, where women had higher suicide rates than men up to 2005, but have had lower rates since then (Wang, Chan, & Yip, 2014).…”

Social Suffering: A New Reference Framework for Economic Analysis

“…Of course, here too, certain socioprofessional categories come to the fore in terms of the difficulties they face in life, which relegates the correlation to a categorical phenomenon. For example, farmers are affected in different countries across the world, despite these countries being high income or low income (for India, see Jeromi 2007; Gruère and Sengupta 2011; Bazin and Khraief 2020; and for France, Prévitali 2015). This phenomenon could also be specific to periods of structural adjustment (Stuckler and Basu 2014), or periods of crisis, particularly when unemployment leads to a loss of income and an inability to maintain one's standard of living (Yip et al 2007; Reeves et al 2015).…”

Health Issues and Mental Distress in French Active Farmers: A Quantitative and Qualitative Study

“…Suicide and stress in farmers have been well documented in the UK (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17) and Australia (18)(19)(20)(21)(22). However, the mechanisms underlying suicide are still poorly understood, especially in France (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28).…”
