Abstract
Respiratory diseases associated with agriculture were one of the first-recognized occupational hazards. Ample data, described in part in these pages, confirm the magnitude and severity of respiratory and other hazards in agriculture. In this review, we attempt to focus attention on the very real risk of serious respiratory disease posed by exposures in the agricultural environment. The ultimate goal of this effort, as with other reports on occupational respiratory diseases, is to communicate an understanding of respiratory disease in the affected populations and how to prevent it.
