• Description:
  Agricultural injury and illness surveillance has always been a difficult pursuit due to the distinct business and regulatory environment in which farming operates. Traditional occupational health surveillance efforts often fall short in adequately incorporating accurate estimates of agricultural injury or illness for a variety of reasons. Given that half the world's population is employed in the agrifood system, and it consistently ranks as one of the most hazardous jobs, more attention and innovation is needed for agricultural injury and illness surveillance. The Journal of Agromedicine special surveillance issue highlights new advancements in surveillance science, with a wide-ranging topical and international scope. The authors present the myriad of unique ways in which they are filling the surveillance gaps. The call for papers solicited research that responded to a variety of factors. Manuscripts included in this special issue were responsive to nearly all of the topics sought. [Description provided by NIOSH]
