Production factors to achieve greater yields. However, the use of pesticides in this agricultural practice raises concerns regarding safety and application techniques. This study examines pesticide safety and application techniques on horticultural crops in Tanjung Pering Village. The research aims to evaluate pesticides' active ingredients, safety, and application techniques. Data collection methods involve direct observation, discussions, and interviews with farmers in Tanjung Pering Village. Primary data were obtained through direct interviews, while secondary data were gathered from various relevant sources. The results indicate that farmers use various pesticides with diverse active ingredients, such as Lamda cyhalothrin, Cypermethrin, Mefenoxam, and Mancozeb. However, pesticide application practices must meet expected safety and efficiency standards. Farmers' understanding of dosage, the use of personal protective equipment (APD), and application techniques still need improvement. In conclusion, more intensive education and awareness campaigns on safe and effective pesticide use are needed to enhance farmers' awareness and practices. Recommendations include a better understanding of dosage, using complete APD, and avoiding pesticide mixing without adequate knowledge to prevent pest resistance and potential hazards for farmers.
