Lesson 3 Handles Materials and Equipment
Agriculture is the producers of the countries food, everything we eat is

the product of sacrifice and hard labor of the workers. Growing population
means higher needs of the product. The natural nutrients in the field are
slowly depleted and the birth of the new pest threaten the percentage of
supply. The event of food shortage is unavoidable.
The old ways of farming which use simple ways and tools like animals
and bolo without pesticides and fertilizers. It should be upgraded to meet the
population’s demands. Through the evolution of time chemicals and materials
used by the farmer are getting complicated. Due to technology and invention,
the old ways are being replace. Farming became complex and procedures of
equipment need to be follow. The safety of the worker became at stake in the
present.
Handling highly poisonous chemicals in the farm should be deal

seriously. These chemicals are fatal, if protection are neglected and safety
procedure are violated. The hazard of machine in the work place are growing
due to uneducated used and failure to follow safety procedures. In these
manner to identify hazard and its corresponding maintenance task are
important to lessen the damage to workers.
What’s In
Materials in the farm today are too complicated compared to the old
days. Before we can work in the farm without protection like mask and gloves,
since chemicals are not practiced in farming before. Personal protective
equipment are significant for the worker to stay healthy and productive.
Proper disposal of the materials like chemicals should be followed to avoid
contamination and being poison.
Notes to the Teacher

Explain to the client the difference of farming before and the
present. The importance of Personal protective equipment and
proper disposal of waste. Identification of hazard in the work place .

What’s New
Mr. Swabe is spraying Padan mixed with Solomon to his two hectare
melon farm early in the morning. Swabe does not take breakfast or even
coffee. He used a shell knapsack 16 litters capacity. The mixture of the
chemical is one pouch of Padan and 3.2ml of Solomon. Swabe source of
water is from the river located in his farm. Around 5:30 in the morning he
started the work. He wasn’t able to bring his mask, he forgot where he place
the mask. He has a pair of gloves place in his both hands. He wear a head
gear and long sleeves. His lower garments is long pants and boots.
Swabe is a hard working farmer he is a father of two children namely

Raul and Michael. His wife is a Teacher in barangay Malipayun. Both his
children are enrolled in Malipayun Elementary School. Raul is a grade six
student and Michael is a grade four student. The wife of swabe is teaching
Grade three section B. Swabe is a hands on farmer, he do farm chores which
based on his capacity.
Melon is a fruit which is sweet and full of vitamins. It is excellent during

hot season for cooling effect. It can be used as ingredients in fruit salad and
other dessert. The demand of the market is high. The profit is good if this fruit
is properly propagated. Chemicals are needed to maintain its good condition,
pesticides are apply in a regular schedule to keep away insect and pest.
After Swabe delivered two knapsack of chemicals he take two stick of

cigarettes under the coconut tree for about three minutes. Afterwards, he
delivered another 4 knapsack of chemicals. And take another two stick of
cigarettes. Around 7:30 in the morning he decided to go home and eat
breakfast. When he arrived in the house he removed his gloves and cloths
and put it in the chair inside the house. Swabe eat his breakfast sound and
good. His food is red rice with adobong manok. After the breakfast he drink
two glass of water.
Furthermore, Swabe take few stick of cigarettes in their corridor. After

30 minutes, Swabe feel unusual. Swabe feel headache so he lay down in his
long chair inside the house. After a few minutes he feel dizziness eventually
nausea and vomiting. His brother Nick noticed the event, he asked swabe
what happened? Swabe told his brother his activity early in the morning. Nick
immediately contact the barangay rescue and bring his brother to the nearest
hospital. After five days swabe get out from the hospital with the bill of
35,000.00 pesos.
In the swabe story what had happened to Him?

What Is It
Personal protective equipment (PPE).
Any equipment which protects the worker from a health and safety risk.
In the work place handling chemicals and equipment’s are usual. Agricultural
worker may exposed to chemicals, such as pesticides, veterinary drugs,
solvents, and oils which might in a long-term cause asthma, skin problems,
harm the nervous system or even cancer. The reaction of the molecules when
it is on full contact to the human body is harmful. Pesticides and herbicides
are design to hinder pest and herbs excluding us. Pest and herbs are organic
matter like humans. The chemical composition of the chemicals are to
supress the subject. But workers are humans and organic matter, so worker
are also vulnerable to toxicity. Manipulating machines in the work place are
hazardous to worker, in a blink of an eye some parts can be faulty. PPE is the
barrier between worker and hazardous chemicals and machines in the work
place.
Below are list of Personal Protective Equipment and its uses
Types of PPE’s Uses of PPE’s

1.Face Mask It is use to avoid to inhale hazardous chemicals and
dust in the work place.
To keep lungs of worker healthy
2.Eye gaggles It is used to void dust and chemicals to enter the eyes.
To prevent sands to enter the eyes.
3. Ear To protect eardrum from excessive noise in the work
protection place.
4. Gloves To avoid contact of chemicals and other sharp
materials in the work place.
Gloves use even handling hot objects.
5.Head gear Used to avoid contact with the chemicals and protect
head from falling debris in the work place.
6. Safety boots Used to avoid contact with the chemicals and protect
foot from falling debris and sharp objects in the work
place
7.Long sleeves Used to avoid contact with the chemicals and protect
and pants body from sharp objects and radiation in the work
place
8.Soap Used to clean wounds and disinfect. To wash away
toxic chemicals if in case have contact with skin.
6
Handling and Disposal of Poisonous chemicals.
These are steps and procedures provided by the manufacturer to its

client to avoid being harm. Harmful chemicals should be treated at outmost
concerned since it could end life at instant if proper medical needs is not meet
then chemicals can contaminate food and water supply.
Below are Methods in handling and Disposal of Poisonous

chemicals.
1. Use PPE’s Personal protective equipment

2. DO NOT TAKE OR DRINK alcoholic drinks 24 hours before handling
during application and up to 48 hours after handling or application.
3. Store in original container tightly closed.
4. Away from food and water supply.
5. While mixing used PPEs.
6. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of spray mist or dust.
7. Wash hands and exposed skin with plenty of soap and water before
eating and after work.
8. Dispose empty container safely by putting in the hole with cover and far
from bodies of water.
9. Avoid using empty gallon for water storage.
10. Extra chemicals should be sealed tightly and put in the safe cabinet
away from reach of children and away from food container and water.
Hazard in handling, transporting and maintenance of equipment’s.
In the work place the hazard is high. Maintenance activities in

agriculture are various and include the maintenance of both machinery and
infrastructure, and the task range from oil and filter changes, battery charging
and replacement, lubrication. Clearing blockages and maintenance of
hydraulic systems and tractors. Maintenance of roofs and glasshouse, silos,
slurry tanks, bins and grain tanks and electric fences and roads. Farmers
often carry out a lot of maintenance work by themselves. This applies to
routine maintenance like general repair work as well as day-to-day
maintenance. Financial pressures lead to a situation in which farmers choose
the do-it-yourself approach instead of paying a specialist contractor. This
increases the risk of accidents because, on the one hand, the farmer may not
have competences in maintenance and on the other, machines and vehicles
in agriculture are becoming more and more sophisticated, thus requiring
qualification in maintenance and repair. Because of the wide variety of tasks,
there are many different hazards involved.

Below are the list of hazard.
1. Mechanical hazard
2. Electrical Hazard
3. Thermal hazard
4. Noise
5. Vibration
6. Hazard associated with materials and substances
7. Ergonomic Hazard
