Abstract		Izhodišča: Ambrozija se je v zadnjih letih zelo razširila tako v svetu, kot tudi v Sloveniji, prav tako se je povečalo število ljudi alergičnih na ambrozijo. Namen raziskave je bil ugotoviti osveščenost lastnikov kmetijskih zemljišč o ambroziji in ali se je povečalo število ljudi alergičnih na ambrozijo na območju Ptuja. Metode: Podatke smo zbrali s pomočjo strukturiranega anketnega vprašalnika, ki je bil sestavljen iz 12 vprašanj zaprtega tipa in 4 vprašanj odprtega tipa. Raziskovalni vzorec je zajemal 30 lastnikov kmetijskih zemljišč na območju Ptuja. Prav tako smo pridobili podatke od Službe zdravstvenega varstva pljučnih bolnikov Ptuj. Rezultati: Ugotovili smo, da se je število alergikov na ambrozijo na območju Ptuja od leta 2009 do 2012 povečevalo in v letu 2012 doseglo največje število. Prav tako smo ugotovili, da lastniki kmetijskih zemljišč prepoznajo ambrozijo in jotudi zatirajo, kljub temu, da večina ne ve, da je le-to tudi zakonsko predpisano. Diskusija in zaključki: Čeprav se vedno več govori o ambroziji tudi v medijih, ljudje naredimo zelo malo oziroma skoraj nič za njeno pravilnozatiranje. Verjetno tudi vsi niso dovolj poučeni o tem, kako ambrozijazgleda in kako jo pravilno in varno zatirati. Tako kot se širi ambrozija na območju Ptuja, se povečuje tudi število ljudi alergičnih nanjo.Background: Ambrosia has in recent years greatly expanded in the world, as well as in Slovenia. Everywhere also increased the number of people allergic to ragweed. The purpose of this study was to determine the awareness of ownersof agricultural land of ambrosia: and whether the number of people allergic to ragweed in the area of Ptuj. Methods: Data were collected by usinga structured questionnaire, which consisted of 12 closed type questions and four open-ended questions. The research sample consisted of 30 owners of agricultural land in the area of Ptuj. We also obtained information from the Health Service Pulmonary patients Ptuj. Results: We found that the number of people with allergies to ragweed in the Ptuj area from 2009 to 2012 increased and in 2012 reached the maximum number. We also found that the owners of agricultural land identified ragweed and even suppressed, despite the fact that most do not know that it is also required by law. Discussion and conclusions: Although more and more talk about ragweed in the media, people make very little or almost nothing for the proper control. Probably all of them not taught enough about how ragweed looks like and how too properly and safely controlled. Like the spread of ragweed Ptuj area is also increasing numbers of people are allergic to it.
