Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Agricultural emissions pose significant health risks, especially in countries like India with abundant agricultural waste. This study focuses on understanding stubble burning perceptions and practices in rural National Capital Region to inform targeted interventions for sustainable farming practices and improved public health.
UNASSIGNED: This community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among the randomly selected households of rural Ballabgarh, Haryana. A pre-tested, semi-structured questionnaire was used to obtain information on perception and practices on stubble burning. Data were collected in Epicollect 5 and analyzed in STATA 14.
UNASSIGNED: Of the 2000 households approached, 1813 responded with a response rate of 90.7%. Around 53% of the study participants believed that vehicular pollution is the main reason for air pollution, and 90% of them were unaware of the Government schemes related to stop stubble burning and with respect to the practices of stubble disposal. Around 70% of the participants mentioned that respiratory illness is the most severe effect of air pollution.
UNASSIGNED: The public was mostly unaware of the government\'s efforts to reduce stubble burning. Health promotion initiatives must be carried out to raise community knowledge about the programs available to combat stubble burning, therefore decreasing air pollution and its health implications.
摘要:
农业排放构成重大健康风险,尤其是在像印度这样农业垃圾丰富的国家。这项研究的重点是了解国家首都地区农村地区的燃茬观念和做法,为可持续农业实践和改善公共卫生提供有针对性的干预措施。
这项基于社区的横断面研究是在农村Ballabgarh随机选择的家庭中进行的,哈里亚纳邦.一个预先测试,半结构化问卷用于获取有关燃茬的感知和实践的信息。数据收集在Epicollec5中,并在STATA14中进行分析。
在接近的2000个家庭中,1813年的反应率为90.7%。大约53%的研究参与者认为车辆污染是空气污染的主要原因,其中90%不知道政府有关停止燃烧胡茬的计划以及处理胡茬的做法。大约70%的参与者提到呼吸道疾病是空气污染最严重的影响。
公众大多没有意识到政府为减少燃烧胡茬所做的努力。必须开展健康促进举措,以提高社区对可用于防治烧胡茬的方案的认识,因此减少空气污染及其对健康的影响。
