Sumario:Exposure to pesticides demands integrated prevention, surveillance and control actions to reduce health consequences. The study analyzed the actions of government agents and civil society in the implementation of public health and environment policies regarding the use of pesticides in Mato Grosso municipalities. Interviews were conducted with twenty-seven interlocutors, interpreted by Thematic Content Analysis, based on the Communicative Action Theory. The categories analyzed, Vulnerabilities in Health and Environment, Challenges of Public Policies, Political and economic hegemony of agribusiness, evidenced the difficulties in structuring health care and surveillance, absence of social participation and absence of intersectoral actions. It is concluded that the influence of agribusiness representatives on local political action contributes to the structural invisibility of the theme.
