Abstract

Context: Due to water scarcity, wastewater is used in agriculture in peri-urban areas.

Aims and settings: We aimed to assess the hazards associated with wastewater farming and develop an incremental improvement plan for the sanitation system of wastewater use for agriculture using Sanitation Safety Planning (SSP) in Bangalore urban district, India.

Methods: Interviews and observations were conducted among 100 farmers in the Mugalur Gram Panchayat area.

Results: Direct ingestion and ingestion after contact with wastewater due to inadequate hand hygiene are the routes of contact with wastewater. The control measures followed in the community are the cultivation of crops, which do not have direct contact with wastewater, furrow and drip irrigation, and restricted irrigation. Methods to mitigate the hazards are the provision of interval between final irrigation and consumption,washing of produce with freshwater before transportation to market, and hygienic cooking.

Conclusion: Occupational hazards and risks associated with wastewater farming can be mitigated through the adoption of locally acceptable preventive measures.

印度班加罗尔城区农业废水利用中的卫生安全规划应用。

背景：由于缺水，废水被用于城市周边地区的农业：我们旨在评估与废水农业相关的危害，并利用印度班加罗尔城区的卫生安全规划（SSP）为农业废水使用的卫生系统制定渐进式改进计划：方法：对 Mugalur Gram Panchayat 地区的 100 名农民进行了访谈和观察：结果：直接摄入和因手部卫生不足而接触废水后摄入是接触废水的途径。社区采取的控制措施是种植不与废水直接接触的作物、沟灌和滴灌以及限制灌溉。减轻危害的方法是在最后灌溉和消费之间留出时间间隔，在产品运往市场前用淡水清洗，以及卫生烹饪：结论：通过采取当地可接受的预防措施，可以减轻与废水养殖相关的职业危害和风险。
