Dermatoses problem in farmers and farm animals
Journal Title: Journal of Animal Science, Biology and Bioeconomy - Year 2018, Vol 36, Issue 2
Abstract
Compared to other occupational groups, farmers are more often assigned to a high risk group for the emergence of occupational skin diseases. Therefore, this study was conducted moving issues among 60 breeders of cattle and pigs. The study was carried out using a questionnaire, which included questions about the farmers and thekept animals kept. Analyzing the results, it was found that over a half of the respondents had symptoms of dermatoses, i.e. redness, pruritus, patches or pustules. Most often, these changes were observed in the winter. Most farmers did not comply with the sanitation procedures.
