Abstract: We consider almost-primes of the form $f(p)$ where $f$ is an irreducible polynomial over $mathbbZ$ and $p$ runs over primes. We improve a result of Richert for polynomials of degree at least $3$. In particular we show that, when the degree is large, there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $f(p)$ has at most $degf+O(logdegf)$ prime factors.
