Anthropometric dimensions of sickle handle among Algerian farmers

This study aims to identify the extent to which the anthropometric measurements of agricultural workers are compatible with the handle of the sickle, We used a descriptive exploratory approach and relied on Vernier calipers to measure the dimensions of hand grip and the dimensions of the sickle handle, The study concluded that the anthropometric measurements of agricultural workers do not align with the sickle handle, The following modifications were proposed: a sickle diameter of (3,95 cm) and a handle length of (9,47 cm), Key words: Anthropometric, farm workers, Sickle.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the extent to which the anthropometric measurements of agricultural workers are compatible with the handle of the sickle, We used a descriptive exploratory approach and relied on Vernier calipers to measure the dimensions of hand grip and the dimensions of the sickle handle, The study concluded that the anthropometric measurements of agricultural workers do not align with the sickle handle, The following modifications were proposed: a sickle diameter of (3,95 cm) and a handle length of (9,47 cm), Key words: Anthropometric, farm workers, Sickle.
