Ergonomic design of paddy irrigation covers to increase agricultural productivity

The use of conventional galengan in rice fields in Rumpa'e hamlet, Telle Village, Ajangale District. Bone is still made from soil, banana trees and bamboo as raw materials for making galengan. This is easy for damage to occur because the soil is not dense and is not effective in making galengan, thus hampering the irrigation process system between rice fields. Therefore, the aim of this research is to design a rice irrigation cover design that is not easily damaged and makes the irrigation process system between rice fields easier. This research uses the method QFD (Quality Function Deployment)So there are 9 statements produced based on the results of interviews with farmers, these 9 statements have been classified based on the interests and needs of farmers. Based on the results of this research, it is possible to design a rice irrigation cover design based on the results of QFD data processing that is not easily damaged using various types of raw materials.(Stainless steel) and is efficient in the manufacturing process, making it easier for farmers in the process of using it because it uses a sliding system.
