Abstract

The use of agricultural mechanisation tools has developed rapidly at this time, but for narrow land it is not suitable to use these tools. Narrow agricultural land is more effective if processed using hoes. The purpose of this study was to compare ergonomic and traditional hoes to know comfortability of farmers when hoeing soil. The research parameters are hoe design, energy consumption, and work capacity. This study used an experimental method to test the use of hoes carried out in agricultural fields. The results showed that the energy consumption of ergonomic hoes was lower than conventional hoe use. In terms of safety and comfort, both ergonomic hoes and conventional hoes are classified as heavy work and cause complaints to workers. The work capacity of farmers using ergonomic hoes increased to 51.9% compared with the hoe P1 which only increased 32.4%. P2 and P3 increased by 26.3%.
