This research compared dust samples from organic and conventional farms to understand health risks to farmers. The study found that both farming methods produce dust containing potentially harmful fungi that can cause respiratory problems. The findings are particularly relevant for agricultural workers’ health and safety. Impacts on everyday life: • Highlights the importance of protective equipment for farm workers • Demonstrates health risks in both organic and conventional farming methods • Helps explain why farmers have higher rates of respiratory illness • Supports the need for better dust control in agricultural settings • Raises awareness about occupational health in agriculture
