Excessive and uncontrollable use of pesticides can provides the risk of pesticide poisoning for farmers. Poisoning is characterized by a decrease in the levels of cholinesterase enzymes. The duration of spraying is an indicator that can affect the level of cholinesterase enzymes. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of spraying time on cholinesterase enzyme levels in farmers that used organophosphate. This study of literature research use descriptive methods analysis sourced from textbooks, reports of research, theses, as well as scientific journals in the last 10 years. The most common of cholinesterase test method used in research is enzymatic test. The most commonly using serum samples rather than red blood cells. The results showed that three references used stated there was a relation between spraying duration against the rate of cholinesterase enzymes. The results of references obtained p-value of 0.044; -0,660; and <0.05. Three references state there was no relationship with p-value of 0.107; 0.76; and 1,000. The length of spraying time a day gives an overview of the intensity of exposure to pesticides. The longer the spraying time, the higher the pesticide exposure and decreased the cholinesterase enzyme levels in the blood.} }
