| Abstract/Description: | The study was carried out at village Dudhwa and Bhadroli, under the adopted cluster area of KVK, Panchmahal (Gujarat), in Kharif season (2010–2011, 2011–2012) to determine the physical fitness, time and activity profile and physiological stress of Farm women at the time of harvesting of maize activity. Use of improved serrated sickle was compared to traditional sickle was tested on farm women to improve work efficiency and to reduce the drudgery of women. A technically prepared serrated sickle was tasted on 45 farm women to improve work efficiency and reduce the drudgery of women. The data of improved and local sickle were compared. The results revealed that 18.5% of work efficiency increased by using serrated sickle as an average, the workload was under acceptable limit for day- long work with normal rest pause for studied sickles. |
