| Abstract/Description: | Manual uprooting and transplanting of rice is tedious, tiresome and labor consuming, because agricultural workers has to stand in puddle field and bend for hours for putting seedling into the soil by hand. Keeping this in view, the present study was planned to compare the rate of human drudgery among farm workers, during various phases of manual uprooting and transplanting with the mechanized methods. The results revealed that more than 75 per cent agricultural workers were belonged to lower middle socio economic status. It was also observed that as compared with others, manual uprooting was the maximum drudgery prone rice cultivation activity based on drudgery index. |
