This survey evaluated tobacco use of migrant tobacco workers in eastern North Carolina. Sixty-nine (38%) out of 181 mostly male, Mexican farmworkers were smokers. Compared to non-smokers, three times more smokers reported alcohol use in the past week (p=0.002). More smokers compared to non-smokers reported poor to fair health, and fewer had worked previously in tobacco agriculture, but these differences were not statistically significant. Also not statistically significant, those smokers who were older and those who understood the most English smoked more cigarettes per day. Because farmworkers are exposed to many non-tobacco respiratory irritants, and because of the health risks of smoking, those who smoke should be urged to quit.
这项调查评估了北卡罗来纳州东部流动烟草工人的烟草使用情况。181名主要为男性的墨西哥农场工人中有69人（38%）吸烟。与不吸烟者相比，吸烟者报告过去一周饮酒的人数是不吸烟者的三倍（p = 0.002）。与不吸烟者相比，更多吸烟者报告健康状况为差到一般，且之前从事烟草农业工作的人数较少，但这些差异无统计学意义。同样无统计学意义的是，年龄较大且英语理解能力最强的吸烟者每天吸烟更多。由于农场工人接触许多非烟草类呼吸道刺激物，且吸烟存在健康风险，应敦促吸烟的人戒烟。
