Abstract: Agriculture is pressured by the crisis caused by the covid-19 pandemic. Necessary actions to prevent the circulation of viruses are affecting the whole world due to the interruption of productive and services activities. Agriculture and its supply chains are classified as essential services in order to avoid disruption of food supply. This implies that agricultural, agribusiness and distribution workers must maintain their activities, adapt to the critical health context and respond to market demands. The effects of this scenario on work are not yet clear. Considering the unprecedented situation of systemic rapid changes and actions, information conveyed by the large media can show the current scenario on the effects of the pandemic. The aim of this study was to identify the impacts of the covid-19 pandemic on work in agriculture and in the supply chains from the perspective of the major national (Brazil) and international media. A textual lexicometric analysis was performed on 28 news published in Portuguese, English, and French by the mainstream media between March and May 2020. Five main impacts of covid-19 on work were identified: worker health, availability of labor, working time, supply chain interruption, and labor market. Such impacts are structured at three levels: farm, agricultural chain, economy and society. The economic and social implications of these impacts on agriculture and production chains were discussed.
