Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
General Responsibilities
Biological Agents
Chemical Agents
1. If pesticides are used on a farming operation, the employer shall
inform, instruct and supervise workers who may be exposed and
advise them of the appropriate precautions to be taken.
2. Workers should be kept away from areas where pesticide drift may
occur.
3. Where pesticides or other chemical agents are used to treat crops or
other farm products, label instructions should be followed, including
the observance and posting of re-entry times for workers.
Physical Agents
1. The employer shall inform workers about the
dangers of hazardous noise exposure and
instruct and supervise workers on the proper
use and maintenance of hearing protection
when it is required.
Farm Equipment
General Responsibilities
a. cutting edges,
b. gears,
c. chains,
d. levers,
e. revolving shafts, and
f. rotating blades.
The main hazards associated with exposure to these parts are described
below.
Shear/Cutting Points.
1. Shear points are created when the edges of two objects are moved close
enough together to cut a material, as in the case of a pair of shears or
an auger
3. They are hazards because of their cutting force, and because they often
move so rapidly that they may not be visible.
1. Pinch points are formed when two objects move together and at least
one of them is moving in a circle. For example, the point at which a
belt runs onto a pulley is a pinch point. Belt drives, chain drives and
gear drives are other examples of pinch points in power transmission
devices.
2. Body parts such as fingers, hands and feet can be caught directly
in pinch points, or they may be drawn into the pinch points by
loose clothing that becomes entangled.
Wrap Points
1. Rotating shafts are the most common source of wrap point accidents,
although any exposed machine part that rotates can be a wrap point.
Clothing or hair can catch on a rotating part.
2. The ends of shafts that protrude beyond bearings are also dangerous.
Universal joints, keys and fastening devices can also snag clothing.
Crush Points
1. Crush points are created when two objects move toward each other or
one object moves toward a stationary one. For example,
hitching a tractor to an attachment may create a potential crush
point; or,
Free-Wheeling Parts
Many machine parts continue to spin after the power is either shut
off or locked out. Even if equipment is locked out, no repair or maintenance
work should be started until all parts have stopped moving. This may take
as long as 2--2.5 minutes. Examples of free-wheeling parts include:
Pull-In Points
Springs
Hydraulic Systems
2. Leaks from hydraulic systems are a serious hazard because of the high
pressure and temperature of the fluid contained in the system. Even fine
jets of hydraulic fluid can burn or pierce skin and tissue. Workers
should:
wear long sleeves, heavy gloves and safety glasses when checking for
leaks;

QUESTIONING TOOL
Satisfactory
Questions to probe the trainee’s underpinning knowledge response
Extension/Reflection Questions Yes No
1. Reflect on a specific instance where you successfully
implemented physical control measures in pest management.
What factors contributed to the success, and what challenges
did you overcome?
Answer: The success in implementing physical control
measures, such as installing row covers, was largely attributed
to meticulous planning. Understanding the life cycles of pests,
proper timing of installation, and consistent monitoring were
key factors. Challenges included adapting to unexpected
weather changes, but these were mitigated through flexible
scheduling and quick adjustments.
Safety Questions
5. When using manual methods for physically controlling pests
in vegetable farming, what safety precautions should a worker
take to protect themselves?
Answer: Workers should wear appropriate personal protective
equipment (PPE) such as gloves, long sleeves, and closed-toe
shoes to minimize direct contact with plants and potential
irritants. Additionally, they should be trained on proper lifting
techniques to avoid strains and injuries.
