Numerous occupational studies of cancer risks related to agriculture, agricultural practices, and agricultural exposures have been conducted among male farmers and farmworkers. Relatively few studies of female farmers and farmworkers have been conducted. Excesses of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma, soft tissue sarcoma, and cancers of the breast, ovary, lung, bladder, cervix, and sinonasal cavities have been observed in women in agriculture or with agricultural exposures. Agents that contribute to ill health in exposed men may also affect exposed women, sometimes in unexpected ways.
针对男性农民和农场工人，已经开展了大量与农业、农业活动及农业接触相关的癌症风险职业研究。针对女性农民和农场工人的研究相对较少。在从事农业或接触农业环境的女性中，已观察到非霍奇金淋巴瘤、白血病、多发性骨髓瘤、软组织肉瘤以及乳腺癌、卵巢癌、肺癌、膀胱癌、宫颈癌和鼻窦癌的发病增多。在接触相关因素后对男性健康造成不良影响的物质，也可能会影响接触这些物质的女性，而且有时是以意想不到的方式。
