Abstract

Farmers are the prime human resource for the economic development of a country. So understanding the health problems of framers and their communication with the health care centers are vital. In this regard, the study aims to identify the impact of farmers’ awareness of visit to health care centers on their health problems. The study was conducted in the Raozan sub-district of the Chittagong district of Bangladesh. The size of the sample was 126. The selection of the study site and the number of respondents were done purposively. Descriptive and quantitative analysis methods have been adopted to examine the study’s objective. The study found that farmers’ frequent visit to health care centers can reduce their occupational health problems. Furthermore, the personal protective equipment and age variables of farmers may also control the farmers’ occupational health problems. The majority of the sample farmers contacted the health care centers but still many farmers unaware to communicate with the health care centers. The study is concluded with fewer recommendations to formulate a health care policy of farmers by consolidating with the agricultural development in Bangladesh.How to Cite: Abu, Z. M.
