Abstract

Pesticides are chemicals used in agriculture to prevent and eradicate plant pests that have the potential to interfere with agricultural output. Excessive use of pesticides without regard to applicable safety standards will have the opportunity to be directly exposed to dangerous pesticide active ingredients. This behavior can have a negative impact on health, one of which is pesticide poisoning. Most of the vegetable farmers in Garuda Sakti do not understand the dangers of pesticides, so education is needed about the impact of pesticides on health and the environment. This effort is made to increase farmers' understanding of the proper use of pesticides so as to prevent the adverse effects of pesticides.
