Farmers’ Wellbeing: A Scoping Review of Psychological and Social Wellbeing of Farming Community

Many developed nations and developing countries are experiencing a decline in the number of farmers and people are no longer interested in pursuing farming practices. There are many physical and biological risks associated with farming environments, which are universal across cultures. Due to this, it is pertinent to consider the psychological and social well-being of farmers from a global perspective. This review followed the preferred reporting items for reviews and meta-analysis extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The findings of this study suggest that farming communities are not in harmony with occupations and society. As a result, they face inequality in gender participation in farming practices. Mental health issues and a decline in willingness to participate in farming create a need to find alternative sources of income.
