| The optimum load carrying capacity and maximum allowable work time at various slopes in the existing Sherpa mode of load carriage was determined based on 35% of maximum aerobic capacity. A convenience sample of 30 healthy agricultural who voluntarily signed an informed consent form participated in this study. The maximum loading capacity for a male is 50% of their body weight for a short duration and a minimum of 17% at 20% slope for a long duration. Considering the rate of perceived exertion in Sherpa mode of load carry, a basket holder was also conceptualized and developed. The silent features of the designed holder are (i) it can accommodate the wide range of existing baskets being used for Sherpa mode, (ii) shoulder straps were provided to transfer... |

| Paddy is the main crop in India grown in about 44 million ha area. Threshing of paddy is one of the most widely used practice in India. Traditional methods of threshing are still prevalent in most of the parts of North-Eastern region. The farming community of the North-Eastern region faces some difficulties in adoption due to low productivity, inadequate design, and injuries during threshing.This study made an attempt to optimize the most significant design parameter of pedal operated paddy thresher (POPT) such as loop spacing, tip height, drum peripheral speed and number of the strip in the periphery of drum to achieve the optimum threshing capacity using Response surface methodology (RSM) in Design Expert v7 tool. From the analysis of variance (ANOVA),... |

| Handgrip strength is considered as one of the most important factors for performing various agricultural tasks related to torqueing, lifting, pulling, pushing, etc. Hand tools and equipment which are designed based on anthropometric/strength data of different population, may not be suitable for any particular targeted user group. As a result work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) at upper extremity may occur very often. Lack of strength data of Assamese population (people of Assam, a state in northeast India), motivated present authors to conduct a survey on isometric handgrip strength data of 200 agricultural workers (130 male and 70 female, aged 17-62 years) from the Kamrup district of the state. Maximal isometric handgrip strength was determined... |
