This study estimated annual mortality from work-related injuries in agriculture in Brazil, 2000-2010. The Mortality Information System (SIM) was used to identify cases. Missing data for occupation and work-related injuries were retrieved through other available individual records and incorporated into total cases. Population data were obtained from the official censuses. A total of 8,923 deaths from work-related injuries were identified, of which 44.8% were located by data retrieval. In the year 2000, estimated crude mortality from work-related injuries was 6.4/100,000 workers, increasing to 8.1/100,000 in 2003 and declining to 7.3/100,000 in 2010. The leading circumstances of deaths in men involved "riding animals or using animal-drawn vehicles", whereas pesticide poisoning was the leading cause in women. Overall mortality from work-related injuries in agriculture was low when compared to that of other countries, suggesting residual under-recording despite data retrieval and thus calling for quality improvement in records. Gender-sensitive preventive measures are necessary.
本研究估算了2000 - 2010年巴西农业中与工作相关伤害的年度死亡率。利用死亡率信息系统（SIM）来识别案例。通过其他可用的个人记录检索职业和与工作相关伤害的缺失数据，并纳入总案例中。人口数据从官方人口普查中获取。共识别出8923例与工作相关伤害导致的死亡，其中44.8%是通过数据检索定位的。2000年，与工作相关伤害的估计粗死亡率为每10万名工人中有6.4人死亡，2003年增至8.1人/10万，2010年降至7.3人/10万。男性死亡的主要情况涉及“骑动物或使用畜力车辆”，而农药中毒是女性死亡的主要原因。与其他国家相比，农业中与工作相关伤害的总体死亡率较低，这表明尽管进行了数据检索，但仍存在记录不足的情况，因此需要提高记录质量。有必要采取对性别敏感的预防措施。
