Abstract

Background and aims: Agricultural activities for producing more products may compromise farmers’ health and cause environmental pollution. This study was carried out to assess the status and correlations between KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE and practice of greenhouse farmers of Jiroft town in relation to adverse health and environmental effects of the use of pesticides in 2015.Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 196 greenhouse farmers of Jiroft town in 2015 with multistage random sampling method. Data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed by using Spearman correlation test, Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis tests through SPSS v.18 software.Results: The average age of participants was 39.77±8.11 years and 96.4 percent were male.Average score of KNOWLEDGE was 20.54±1.85, ATTITUDE 32.88±3.27 and PERFORMANCE was 35.21±2.41. The PERFORMANCE score was statistically positive correlation with KNOWLEDGE and ATTITUDE (p<0.001). As well as the KNOWLEDGE to gender, age, location, history of Farming and greenhouses (p<0.05), ATTITUDE with Farming history and greenhouse farming history has significant positive relationship (p<0.03).Conclusion: Unsatisfactory PERFORMANCE score of farmers in cases that can exert harmful effects to their health, greenhouse products and environment shows that necessarily the optimal KNOWLEDGE and ATTITUDE will not be cause to optimal PERFORMANCE and is needed for planned interventions based on health education and health promotion models that consider the intrapersonal and interpersonal and other factors are taken into consideration.
