Paper Summary:

This paper explains that children brought up on a farm are at a higher risk of exposure to pesticides. The writer states that basic hygiene practices and proper education are the solution to removing this risk.

From the Paper:

"Pesticides contain harmful effects to human, as repeatedly reported by series of studies of the US Environmental Protection Agency. Pesticides can be included into high-level danger category for its long lasting potential hazard. However, the continuous usage in farming areas sometimes goes far beyond the awareness of the farmers to protect their family - especially children - from the pesticides effects. Farmer groups stay away from the health concern due to lack of information and regulation of pesticides use."
