Meio ambiente e saúde: perspectiva dos produtores rurais frente ao uso de defensivos agrícolas

Abstract: Os agrotóxicos ou defensivos agrícolas são produtos químicos utilizados para controlar pragas e doenças em plantas, visando aumento de produtividade e qualidade de produtos. Contudo, o aumento da frequência no uso, do modo de aplicação, das condições climáticas e de características bióticas e abióticas podem definir o impacto que estes causam na saúde e no meio ambiente. Assim, o objetivo do estudo foi identificar qual o conhecimento e a percepção dos produtores rurais acerca dos riscos do uso dos defensivos a… Show more

“…Brazil is a major producer of grains and food on the planet and according to Simon et al (2022), pesticides or agricultural defensives are chemical products used to control pests and diseases in plants, aiming to increase productivity and product quality. However, increased frequency of use, mode of application, climatic conditions and biotic and abiotic characteristics can define the impact they cause on health and the environment.…”

“…The factors: increased agricultural commodities, instrumentalization in the field and political easing have made Brazil one of the largest importers of pesticides in the world (Borsoi et al, 2014). This production model is called the "green revolution" or agribusiness, which makes possible the high dependence on pesticides, mechanization of crops, genetic selection of domestic animals with high production potential and the selection of agricultural cultivars with high potential, widespread use of irrigation and drainage systems, as well as dependence on economic and fiscal incentive policies for the promotion and development of contemporary agriculture (Ramos;Simon et al, 2022). This model has several negative impacts on environmental and socioeconomic relations: a) rural exodus of tenant family producers, households, partners and others from the rural environment to the cities; b) condition of the quality of life of the expelled workers; c) ecological imbalance, loss of biological diversity; d) acute and/or chronic poisoning of rural workers and adjacent areas by the intensive use of pesticides (Carneiro;Barbosa et al, 2020).…”
