The present study intends to analyze the data on accidents at work for agriculture considering the first 5 activities that present the highest accident record. The social security statistical yearbooks (AEPS) for the period 2013 to 2018 were used for the analysis, seeking to raise the accident profile of the victims and which states of the union most contribute to the numbers of victims in the country, with the objective of raising a panorama general of occupational accidents in the agricultural sector, thus compiling data that facilitates the application of programs that promote the prevention of accidents in the field. Through data analysis, it was found that the male worker, usually occupying a vacancy as a field assistant, is the largest share of accidents registered with the INSS. The injuries occurred mostly in the hands and fingers and, in some cases, in the lower limbs. The most common injuries were fractures, cuts and lacerations, generally without risk to the worker's life. The states that had the highest numbers of accidents in the agricultural sector were the states of São Paulo (SP), Mato Grosso (MT) and Mato Grosso de Sul (MS). And it was observed that the occurrence of registered accidents is closely linked with predominant agricultural production and the intensity of economic activity of the state.
