Abstract

Introduction: Agriculture plays a crucial role in Indonesia, with farmers as the backbone of this sector. However, farmers often experience high levels of stress due to workloads and other psychosocial issues. Objective: This study aims to review the literature on coping strategies used by farmers to address their psychosocial problems. Method: A literature review was conducted by searching for relevant articles in databases such as Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Keywords related to “stress”, “farmers”, and “coping” were used. Selected articles were published in the last five years (2019-2024). Results: The literature review revealed that farmers employ various coping strategies to manage stress, including good work practices, stress management, mental health counseling, relaxation therapy, and coping strategies focused on problems or emotions. Social support, self-confidence, and self-efficacy also play crucial roles in reducing stress among farmers. Conclusion: Farmers in Indonesia face significant psychosocial challenges, but they demonstrate the ability to address these issues through various coping strategies. Social support and self-confidence are crucial in improving the mental well-being of farmers.

Abstract

Backgrounds: Soil-transmitted Helminths infections have become a frequent phenomenon among farmers due to their lack of hygiene, making it easy for nematode worms to enter the body. Soil-transmitted helminths can affect nutritional status, resulting in anemia, loss of appetite, and damage to the intestines. To overcome this phenomenon, adequate personal hygiene in farmers is needed. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze how personal hygiene can affect the incidence of Soil-Transmitted Helminths infection. Methods: The method used is a literature review using 10 kinds of literature from 3 sources, namely Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct with a publication range from 2020-2024. Result: The results showed that some articles showed an association between personal hygiene and the incidence of soil-transmitted helminths. Good personal hygiene can prevent the entry of nematode worms into the digestive tract of the body. Besides that, some articles also showed no association between personal hygiene and soil-transmitted helminth infection. Conclusion: Adequate personal hygiene such as always using gloves and complete personal protective equipment while working, always washing hands before eating, and maintaining environmental hygiene is needed by farmers to avoid the incidence of soil-transmitted helminth infection.

Abstract

Background: In Indonesia the impact of noise that causes hearing loss is still high compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. Noise can cause hearing loss in workers if the scale of the noise is high and occurs continuously. It can also trigger a decline in health that will have an impact on the performance of workers. Objective: to Analysis of PPE Compliance in Preventing Hearing Loss in Agro-Industrial Area. Methods: The research in this study used the literature review method. This search strategy uses several databases such as Pubmed, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar. This search use keywords PPE, Hearing Loss, and Agro-industrial. Results: Increasing noise intensity, duration of work, and duration of exposure can cause hearing loss because the inner hair cells and supporting cells are damaged. The longer the working period, the greater the noise exposure it will receive. The use of PPE can effectively prevent noise-induced hearing loss. Conclusion: Workers exposed to noise are highly susceptible to hearing loss. It depends on the intensity of the noise, the duration of exposure, the sensitivity of the individual or the worker itself and the frequency of the noise. Noise can be prevented, one of which is by using personal protective equipment when working. In this case, nurses can educate related to the use of PPE to prevent hearing loss.

The purpose of carrying out occupational therapy is to install clothing buttons to improve fine motor skills in children with moderate disabilities. This study was a descriptive research with a case study research design. The study subjects were patients with moderate impairment who experienced fine motor impairment. Data was obtained through interviews, observations, physical examinations, literature studies, and research instruments. This research was carried out in June 2024 at SLB N Slawi, and an ethical feasibility test has been carried out. The results of this study showed that fine motor skills in children with moderate disabilities in wearing buttons per day, which were measured and recorded on the observation sheet, improved.
