This article explores the multifaceted issues of occupational hazards in agriculture, focusing on common causes, circumstances of accidents, and preventive measures. Agriculture is recognized as one of the most hazardous industries, second only to construction. The study delves into the reasons for the high incidence of accidents, which include a tolerance for risky behaviors, poor engagement, lack of proper risk assessment, and inadequate safety regulations. By analyzing data from the International Labour Organization and other relevant sources, the research identifies the primary risks faced by agricultural workers, such as mechanical, chemical, biological hazards, and accidents involving animals and machinery. The findings highlight the necessity of comprehensive safety education, technological improvements, and legal regulations to mitigate these risks. The goal is to provide a thorough understanding of the current safety landscape in agriculture and to propose actionable strategies to enhance occupational safety and health.
