On the base of medical documentation, we presented epidemiological analysis of 215 patients treated for traumas of facial skeleton, which occurred during agricultural tasks. It was concluded that the injuries mentioned above occurred more frequently in males at the age between 18-40. The traumas in this group occurred mainly during use of jig saw or other tools and machinery used in agriculture. However in the female population injuries of facial skeleton resulted mainly from zoogenous trauma and accidental fall downs.
