Abstract

Behavioral health and stress are often antecedents to chronic health problems and injury; however, until recently addressing health and safety issues from a behavioral perspective has received little treatment. In this article, we review the current state of behavioral health and stress in agriculture, examine current trends to address this stress, identify gaps still to be filled and make recommendations for future efforts.

Keywords: Stress; behavioral health.
