chlorpyrifos, coffee plantation, pesticides

Farmers and farm workers face varied occupational risks, which includes biological, chemical, and farm machinery risks along with environmental and social pressures. Chemical risks include toxicity caused by pesticides. As India stands one among the top 10 nation in coffee production, a commonly used pesticide in coffee plantation chlorpyrifos was selected and 100 farmers at mudigere who were exposed to this pesticide was selected and surveyed through questionnaire. The result obtained showed that among the individuals exposed to chlorpyrifos poisoning 50.5% show symptoms immediately, in which 67.2% report with redness, 59% with watering of eyes and breathing difficulty. 42.6% of them get symptoms within 6 hours in which 51.7% reported with rashes, 49.2% with numbness, 48.3% with headache and heaviness in chest. In 3.62% of individuals symptoms appear within 1 week in which 6.8% experienced with numbness, 6.7% with heaviness in chest and 5.6% with pain in abdomen. And 3.02% of them within 15 days among which 6.6% with running nose, 5.9% with pain in abdomen and 3.45 with diarrhea. 66.7% of them had not used any protective measures during the exposure where as 33.3% of them use mask and gloves. So, there is an urgent need to create awareness among the coffee plantation workers exposed to pesticides.
