VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS OF PESTICIDE POISONING IN FARMERS IN SIMPANG TANJUNG NAN IV VILLAGE, SOLOK REGENCY
Abstrak
Desa Simpang Tanjung Nan IV, located in Solok Regency, is an agricultural area that produces various horticultural crops. Farmers in this region largely depend on chemical pesticides for pest control. Field observations indicate that approximately 82–88% of farmers regularly use pesticides, applying them two to three times per week during the planting season. More than 60% of farmers mix two to three different types of pesticides to achieve faster effects, often disregarding dosage and label instructions. The proximity of residential areas to farmlands (less than 100 meters) increases the risk of pesticide poisoning among the community. This study aims to assess the level of vulnerability associated with pesticide use. A semi-quantitative method was employed, combining descriptive and spatial data analysis. Samples included water, soil, and air quality, complemented by interviews with 11 key informants consisting of village leaders, sub-village heads, and local health officers. The vulnerability analysis integrated secondary data and environmental quality parameters collected from January to December 2022. Results show that two villages exhibit high social vulnerability, six villages have high economic vulnerability, and most villages demonstrate high environmental vulnerability. Moreover, five villages display a high level of pesticide poisoning vulnerability. Overall, the social, economic, environmental, and pesticide-related vulnerability indices in Desa Simpang Tanjung Nan IV are relatively high. Therefore, vulnerability risk management should focus on behavioral interventions among farmers, strengthening environmental monitoring systems, and promoting the development and adoption of bio-pesticides to reduce dependence on chemical pesticides.
