First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 25 times

Summary

This study follows nearly 90,000 farmers and their spouses to track long-term health effects from pesticides and farm work. Researchers confirm self-reported diseases like asthma and Parkinson's by reviewing medical records and collecting cheek swabs. The goal is to understand how farming exposures affect health over time, not to test a new treatment.
