Abstract

This study aims to formulate priority strategies for reducing health impacts due to pesticide exposure in red onion farmers. The research was conducted in Brebes District, Wanasari District, and Jatibarang District, Brebes Regency, Central Java Province. The collected data is analyzed for prioritization based on criteria and strategies set with a hierarchical and priority model. The process of completing the Analytical Hierarchy Process method in this study was carried out with the software Expert Choice 11. The results showed that the pairwise comparison assessment on alternatives was a technological improvement with a weight of 0.475; Improved regulation with a weight of 0.329 and increased knowledge, attitude, and practice with a weight of 0.196. This shows that technology related to reducing health impacts needs to be regulated separately considering the high number of health problems due to pesticide exposure.
