In this study, it was researched if farmers from the Igdir Province of Turkey have knowledge and awareness on effect of plant protection implementations on environment and human health. The data were collected from 104 enterprises, which have been recorded in Farmer Records System of the Igdir Province directorate of Food, Agriculture and Livestock Ministry, through discussions face to face. Almost half of the farmers told that pesticides are harmless, and one forth that pesticide residues are harmless, which shows insufficiency in conciseness of farmers. Especially, that no attention was given cleaning water' deposits, removing empty chemical's packages, and storing remaining pesticides, showed lack of awareness on plant protection and environment.
