Developing low cost harvesting tool using ergonomics concept for oil palm fresh fruit bunch harvesters in Malaysia: a case study

Harvesting fresh fruit bunch activities is high risk and hazardous task that lead to musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) among harvesters. Work situation and the current hand tools to harvest FFB identified as the main contributing factors in increasing MSD. The objective of this study is to design and...
