N2  - Historically, the behavioral health of the agricultural population has been affected by their economic well being. Sufficient research now exists to recognize the agricultural population as a health disparity group. A pattern of environmental, cultural, and economic factors unique to the agricultural community suggests a higher risk for health disparity among persons engaged in agriculture. This article traces the development of specialized behavioral healthcare services designed for the agricultural population. Gradually over the past few years a new field, agricultural behavioral health, has emerged.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
