Aiming to reconstruct the health issues arising from the increasing use of pesticides in the Italian countryside in the second half of the 20th century, this article offers an overview of the history of the harmfulness of agricultural labor in its most intensely industrialized phase, while delving into the actions undertaken by institutions to reform prevention regulations. In this perspective, the relations that took place between health institutions and trade unions in the season of regional decentralization and the establishment of the National Health Service are analyzed. Looking at the strategies contracted in the health-environment field by the various actors involved, the research proposes a provisional balance of the initiatives adopted in the field of prevention of work-related diseases in rural areas.
