To mitigate the health risks associated with agrochemicals, several measures can be implemented:
1. Regulation and Policy: Strengthening regulations on the use and distribution of agrochemicals can reduce exposure levels. 2. Public Awareness: Educating farmers and the public about safe handling practices and potential health risks can promote safer usage. 3. Alternative Practices: Encouraging the use of integrated pest management (IPM) and organic farming methods can reduce reliance on harmful chemicals. 4. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Ensuring that agricultural workers use appropriate PPE can minimize direct exposure.
