Safety impact and farmer awareness of pesticide residues

Pesticide residues have always been an important concern in agricultural safety. Investigating farmers' awareness of pesticide residues and their behaviours regarding pesticide application is particularly important in order to reduce human factors that negatively affect agricultural safety. This review focuses on a summary of both domestic and foreign studies since 2000 regarding the effects of pesticide residues on agricultural safety, as well as farmers' awareness of these effects. This review also incorporates the actual performance of China on the issue of pesticide residues in order to provide the studies with a newer perspective.
