This study aimed to identify the pesticide residue contamination in women farmers' breast milk in agricultural areas and analyze the risk factors. Quantitative descriptive research method with cross-sectional approach. A sample of 10 female farmers was selected using the purposive sampling technique. Data on risk factors were obtained by interview using a questionnaire, and pesticide residues in breast milk were measured by GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS. Spearman rank correlation tests and ordinal logistic regression are used to analyze data. The results showed that all of the respondents' breast milk was contaminated with organochlorine pesticide <em>p'p</em> DDE (> 0.001 mg/kg). Statistical test results prove that nutritional status / BMI with pesticide residue concentration has a significant relationship (p-value = 0.000). In conclusion, excess body mass index is a risk factor for pesticide residue contamination in female farmers in agricultural areas.</p>}, number={1}, journal={STRADA Jurnal Ilmiah Kesehatan}, author={Rachmawati, Intan and Hernawati, Sri and Sulistyaningsih, Erma and Muhammad, Aldi Cahya}, year={2021}, month={May}, pages={596–604} }
