I do know that there are quite a number of farmers who change to an organic / biological system of farming for health reasons and have been to treat a farmer who was being poisened by the roof water that contained agrichemical sprays. The neighbour was a realy generous chap who liked to share the aerosol part of the spray generously with all his down wind neibours. Even the cloths in the wardrobe stunk of it. I don't know of a university study on this subject.
