This systematic review aims to analyze and examine various literature that discusses anemia that occurs in farmers due to pesticides. The research method used is literature review with secondary data obtained from the Google Scholar database, PubMed with a span of 10 years. In order to obtain 8 scientific articles that can be analyzed. The results of a literature review of 8 research articles show that most farmers control pests on plants using pesticides. Factors that influence the incidence of anemia are not using PPE, duration of spraying, years of service, nutritional status, level of education, gender, exposure to pesticides.
