The consequences generated by the development of agricultural activities (floriculture) in the health of the people of Isla Grande, Maipú, Mendoza, in the period 2013-2017
Keywords:
floriculture- respiratory diseases-weather conditions-rural population.Abstract
The research carried out is aimed at the study of floriculture, which takes place in the town of Isla Grande, Barrancas district, Department of Maipú; and the link that is generated between this economic activity with respiratory-dermal diseases. In addition, the relationship that may exist between health problems and weather conditions is investigated, since they can influence both directly and indirectly.
To develop the theme in an integral way, the reconstruction of a theoretical model of its own was carried out; from the dimensions proposed by Lalonde, while the macrosocial, political and perceptual structure of the population was taken from the theoretical model of Tarlov. This "new theoretical model" links the basic dimensions of health by assigning a percentage of importance to each of them, without neglecting the macro-social, perceptive population context where the rural population is inserted. We worked with statistical data from the CAPS (Primary Health Assistance Center No. 59), of the Regional Department of Meteorology of the CRICYT, of the D.E.I.E. (Directorate of Statistics and Economic Research) and with the information provided in the surveys and interviews, conducted during field trips.
