This paper offers an overview of research perspectives, gaps, and priorities within the field of mental health and \nwell-being among farming communities in the Global North. Developed by an international working group of \nscholars with expertise in the mental health and well-being of agricultural and rural communities, it outlines the \nimportance of developing an international research agenda in this subject area by presenting five propositions. \nEach of the propositions addresses current research gaps and/or highlights potential advancements in investigations into one of the following areas of study: i) who is being researched, ii) what is being researched, iii) \ngeographical gaps in research, iv) informal and formal support systems, and v) methodological approaches and \nissues. The purpose of this paper is to encourage discussion and present a potential agenda around which new \nstudies might be inspired and developed, as well as to help drive forward more focused, joined-up research \nacross the Global North to facilitate more effective outcomes for individuals belonging to agricultural \ncommunities.
