Challenges in the Case Challenges in the Case StudyStudy
• Study area typified by intensive agricultural systems– Regional behavior study / nationally
relevant conclusions
• Survey covers land owners (decision makers) but not landless (pesticide users?)– It is more difficult to assess health impacts
• Multi-sectoral agriculture-health study

Strong points in the studyStrong points in the study
• Poor use less pesticides than the non-poor, but the chemicals are more toxic.
• Poor are very aware of risks• Poor have less access to training
– e.g. safe handling of pesticides training; poor 29%, non-poor 34%
