Objective: The purpose were understanding the epidemiological characteristics of work related injuries of the farmer and establishing injury prevention and control activity. Background: Agriculture is one of the most hazardous industry and job in Korea. Method: We reviewed previous reports regarding the agricultural injury, injury prevention and control. Results: In the agricultural total injury, there were 45,342 hospitalized injury to farmers, injury rate was 35.8/1,000 farmers/years. Of these injuries, 52.6 percent were classed as work related injury. The farm-related injury rate was 17.5/1,000 farmers/years by analysis of Safety Aid System of Farm Workers. There were 2.4 times as incidence rate for farmers compared to non-farmers. Conclusion: Several strategies are available for injury prevention and control. They are as follows; social concern, survey of farm related injury, injury prevention, injury surveillance system and injury compensation.

Background: Hypothermia is a crucial environmental factor that elevates the risk of cardiovascular disease, but the underlying effect is unclear. Objectives: This study examined the role of cold stress (CS) in cardiac injury and its underlying mechanisms. Methods: In this study, a chronic CS-induced myocardial injury model was used; mice were subjected to chronic CS (4℃) for three hours per day for three weeks. Results: CS could result in myocardial injury by inducing the levels of heat shock proteins 70 (HSP70), enhancing the generation of creatine phosphokinase-isoenzyme (CKMB) and malondialdehyde (MDA), increasing the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) interleukin1b (IL-1β), IL-18, IL-6, and triggering the depletion of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione (GSH). Multiple signaling pathways were activated by cold exposure, including pyroptosis-associated NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3)-regulated caspase-1-dependent/Gasdermin D (GSDMD), inflammation-related toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)-mediated nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), as well as oxidative stressinvolved thioredoxin-1/thioredoxin-interacting protein (Txnip) signaling pathways, which play a pivotal role in myocardial injury resulting from hypothermia. Conclusions: These findings provide new insights into the increased risk of cardiovascular disease at extremely low temperatures.

As compared before, agricultural machines are used more commonly instead of animal or manpower in rural areas and the injuries due to those are common. This study was conducted by questionnaire method in order to find out the current status of injuries due to agricultural machines for farmers who was selected from three Gun's in Kyeongsangnam Province. The study subjects were 385 persons in all(210 male persons, 175 female reasons) and the study period was from July through September 1993. The results were as follows; 1. The injury rate due to agricultural machines was high in male(p<0.05), and it was higher in younger age group and higher educated group. 2. The injury occurred high in summer and autumn seasons(77.6%), in the afternoon(60.6%), and during harvest(35.2%). 3. The major injuries were contusion, fracture, amputation in order and the injured sites were arms, legs, and chest in order. 31.7% of the injured farmers had been admitted, and they were treated at hospitals, home, drugstores and health centers in order. 4. The casualty damage was highest by cultivators, and agricultural instruments, threshing machine were followed. Among traumatic injuries concerned with cultivators contusions were most common, and fractures, amputations were followed. In case of agricultural instruments bruises were most common, and incisions, contusion were followed. In case of threshing machines fractures were most common and contusion, bruise were followed.

Recently supporting policy of government for agricultural is changing from individual to workplace. For this reason, the number of industrial injury is increasing due to increase workplace in the agriculture. However, because the studies on the characteristics and causes of injury have not been performed, the effective measure for the prevention of industrial injury is difficult to establish. The aim of this study is to analyze the industrial injury characteristic and prepare the effective counterplan to prevent industrial injury of the workplace in the agriculture. This study analyzed 2,970 cases of industrial injury during the last five years (2008-2012) in the agriculture sector. The data was offered by Korean Occupational Safety and Health Agency. The results of analysis the industrial injury characteristic of the workplace in the agriculture, number of industrial injury for source of industrial injury was 12.3% in the outdoor floor and injury type was 23.1% in the fall. This study analyzed industrial injury characteristic which size and type of workplace, injury type and source of industrial injury through the case of industrial injury in agriculture. The result of this study will be helpful to identify the industrial injury characteristic in the agriculture and prepares the effective industrial injury prevention method.

Ammonium nitrogen is volatilized as ammonia at high pH soil. This study was conducted to observe an injury cause of egg plant grown in a high pH rockwool amended with ammonium phosphate. The etiolation symptom (yellowing) was appeared on veins of a leaf but not in healthy root when nutrient solution containing ammonium phosphate in addition to essential elements was applied in a top soil of which pH was 7.8. However, the same symptom did not appeared in the egg plant from the top soil in which the nutrition solution containing potassium phosphate instead of ammonium phosphate was applied. pHs were similar between these two different solutions. This revealed that the injury was caused by ammonia gas.

찰옥수수를 가해하는 조명나방의 피해에 대한 요방제 수준을 설정하고자 페로몬 트랩을 이용한 성충의 유살량 조사와 처리구별로 피해율을 조절하여 포장시험을 수행하였다. 춘천 등 도내 5개 지역에 설치한 페로몬 트랩에 조명나방 성충이 찰옥수수 전 생육기간에 걸쳐 유인되었으며, 유살량은 춘천, 철원, 홍천 순으로 많았고, 이에 따른 찰옥수수의 피해율도 같은 경향을 나타냈다. 찰옥수수 출사기에 조명나방의 피해주율을 조절하여 수확기에 처리별로 수량을 조사한 결과, 출사기 피해주율이 11~15%일 때부터 찰옥수수상품수량이 급격히 감소하여 경제적 피해 허용수준을 초과하였으며 따라서 이 수준을 요방제 수준으로 설정하였다.

농작물 안전생산 및 대기환경 개선을 위한 기초 자료로 활용하기 위하여 유해가스에 의한 농작물 피해원인을 구명하였다. 작물 피해현지에서 유해가스에 의한 피해증상을 조사하였으며, 작물체중 유해성분 함량을 분석하였다. 또한, 2004년 경북지역 농공단지에서 발생한 작물피해 사례에 대한 피해원인 구명을 위하여 조사지역의 피해발생 당시 기상자료 및 오염원에서의 배출가스 농도를 적용한 오염물질 확산을 제시하였다. 주요 작물의 암모니아가스 피해증상은 잎 끝으로부터 백색으로 고사하며, 저농도의 경우에는 적갈색 반점이 나타나는 특징을 보였고 화훼류의 경우에는 꽃보다 잎의 피해가 심하게 나타났다. 불소가스 피해증상은 잎의 선단이나 가장자리 부분에 나타나는 특성이 있다. 또한, 유해가스로 인한 작물피해 현지 사례에서 피해 지역의 아황산가스 등농도(等濃度) 분포를 조사한 결과, 조사지역은 발생원으로부터 발생된 아황산가스 영향을 받고 있으며, 특히 계절별로는 기상요인에 따른 여름철의 피해가 우려되었다.

본 연구는 농업인의 안전사고와 농작업성 질환으로 인한 업무상 재해를 효율적으로 예방하고 관리하며 앞으로 관리체제를 효율적으로 운영하는 전략들을 제안하기 위하여 국내 업무상 재해에 대한 법적 행정적 지원체계를 고찰하였다. 농업인 업무상재해를 체계적으로 관리하기 위한 법적 제도적 지원체제를 마련하기 위해 국내의 다른 사업 분야에서 현재 시행되고 있는 관련법 제정 및 관할 행정조직을 조사하였다. 또한, 국내 산업안전보건법이 제정되기까지의 역사적 배경과 산업안전보건 관련법, 행정적 지원 체계와 주요 역할들을 살펴보았다. 또한, 우리나라의 산업안전보건 정책 및 현황과 농업안전보건 관련 현황들을 조사하여 요약 정리하였다. 이로부터 얻어진 결과는 우리나라의 농업인 안전보건 정책들은 노동부와 농림부, 보건복지부 등의 산업안전보건법과 산업재해보상보험법, 농림어업인의 삶의 질 향상 및 농산어촌 지역개발 촉진에 관한 특별법 등에 의하여 이루어지고 있으나, 각기 법적 제도적 한계점을 갖고 있다는 것이다. 즉, 농업인이 법적 근로자에 포함되지 않으므로 제도적 관리 및 혜택에서 제외되고 있으며, 농업인들을 대상으로 하는 농협의 농업인 재해공제 역시 임의가입에 따라 한정된 조합원들에게만 적은 범위내의 재해에 따른 보험혜택을 받고 있는 실정이었다. 더욱이, 현재 농업인 업무상재해를 관리하기 위한 별도의 전담조직은 아직 없다. 이와 같이 각 부처에서 산발적이고 비주류적인 사업으로서는 그 효과를 제대로 보기 어려우므로 하루빨리 이러한 사업들의 효과를 높이기 위해서는 관련 부처간의 정보교류 등 연계방안을 구축하는 것이 매우 필요하다.
