The primary goal of this project was to evaluate if farmers have detected any negative health impacts in sheep that could possibly originate from pollution from the smelters. A questionnaire was sent to all farmers with ten or more sheep in three communities, Kjosarhreppur, Hvalfjardarsveit and Borgarbyggd, in total 222 farms.
Til þess að meta hvort bændur finna fyrir einhverjum neikvæðum heilsufarseinkennum hjá sauðfé vegna hugsanlegrar mengunar frá iðjuverunum var send spurningakönnun á alla bæi með tíu kindur eða fleiri í Kjósarhreppi, Hvalfjarðarsveit og Borgarbyggð, alls 222 bæi.
