Select, use and care for hand tools and basic equipment and infrastructure

Primary Agriculture NQF Level 1 Unit Standard No: 116167 22

Version: 01 Version Date: July 2006

BBeeffoorree wwee ssttaarrtt…… Dear Learner - on completion of the Learner Guide, you should have acquired all the knowledge and skills to be assessed against the following unit standard:

Title: Select, use and care for hand tools and basic equipment and infrastructure

US No: 116167 NQF Level: 1 Credits: 4

Please read the unit standard at your own time (see Learning Guide).

WWhhaatt iiss aasssseessssmmeenntt aallll aabboouutt?? Assessment takes place at different intervals of the learning process and includes various activities. Some activities will be done before the commencement of the program whilst others will be done during programme delivery and other after completion of the program.

The assessment experience should be user friendly, transparent and fair. Should you feel that you have been treated unfairly, you have the right to appeal. Please ask your facilitator about the appeals process and make your own notes.

HHooww ttoo uussee tthhiiss wwoorrkkbbooookk …… Your activity workbook will be handed in from time to time on request of the facilitator for the following purposes:

The activities that follow are designed to help you gain the skills, knowledge and attitudes that you need in order to become competent in this learning module.

It is important that you complete all the activities and worksheets, as directed in the learner guide and at the time indicated by the facilitator.

It is important that you ask questions and participate as much as possible in order to play an active roll in reaching competence.

When you have completed all the activities and worksheets, hand this workbook in to the assessor who will mark it and guide you in areas where additional learning might be required.

You should not move on to the next step in the assessment process until this step is completed, marked and you have received feedback from the assessor.

Sources of information to complete these activities should be identified by your facilitator.

Please note that all completed activities, tasks and other items on which you were assessed must be kept in good order as it becomes part of your Portfolio of Evidence for final assessment.

Article on Technology in Agriculture:

“Agrochemical users must make every effort to use those products that minimise the risk to themselves and others. In the choice of agrochemicals they may often be guided by advertisements in the mass media. It is therefore important that users seek advice from agricultural extension workers and several independent suppliers.

Similarly, choice of safe technology is important. For example, there may be several types of spray equipment on the market, but the cheapest ones are often not the best for safety. They may be of poor quality and might start to leak. The same may be true of the choice of personal protective equipment. Again, users should remember to seek advice.

The adoption of safe working systems and practices will minimise risk. The arrangement of working time, particularly in hot climates, would be relevant here. For example, agrochemical spraying could be undertaken in the early hours of the morning. Engineering control measures, personal hygiene and other measures, the use of personal protective equipment as a last line of defence and the alternatives to agrochemicals will be discussed in the following subsections.

Group discussion and presentation: What follows is a short article on technology in agriculture. Follow the instructions.

Select, use and care for hand tools and basic equipment and infrastructure

Primary Agriculture NQF Level 1 Unit Standard No: 116167 66

Version: 01 Version Date: July 2006

Engineering control measures: A basic principle of user protection is that all possible measures should first be taken to reduce exposure at the source. Routine maintenance should ensure that agrochemical application equipment is in good condition and without any potential to leak or spill. Particular attention should be given to knapsack sprayers where leakage could seriously contaminate the user.

New developments in engineering controls go much further by introducing improved design features, which automate agrochemical handling or make some tasks easier or safer. Examples of engineering control measures include:

Closed systems. The container is opened and the contents are automatically released through a measuring or weighing device into the spray tank.

Filling probe. This transfers agrochemicals by suction from an opened container on the ground into the spray tank.

Pre-mix bowl. This is a low-level bowl into which the agrochemical is poured. It is then automatically transferred to the spray tank.

Anti-siphoning device. This prevents back siphoning of spray tank contents into the water supply used for dilution or mixing.

Easy access sprayer. Here the user can reach all parts of the sprayer for manual filling or maintenance.

Automatic boom. In this operation the spray boom opens and folds automatically.

Sprayer controls. These controls fitted on to the tractor are readily accessible from the driver's seat.

Quick-change nozzles. Devices used for rapid nozzle changing and cleaning.

Storage. Areas in the tractor designed for clean water, protective clothing, pesticide containers and spare nozzles.

Use of personal protective equipment: Most agrochemicals present a risk to the user that may be controlled by engineering control measures. Where recourse to the above measures does not suffice, personal protective equipment should be used.

Protective clothing: Because of the nature of farm work, engineering control measures may not always be feasible. Protective clothing therefore remains a necessary part of working with agrochemicals. The items required would depend on the harmful effects of the agrochemical and the way in which it is used.

In practice, labelled information supplied with the agrochemical will generally specify the level of protection required. Detailed information on the quality of various items such as the minimum thickness of gloves or the material from

which they are made, e.g. neoprene, nitrile or butyl, may also be supplied. Similarly, prescribed items of respiratory protective equipment and the care necessary in their maintenance might be listed. Examples of personal protective clothing are given in figure 1.

Respiratory protection

Gauntlet gloves

Selection, use and maintenance of personal protective equipment: When specified on the product label, the selection of appropriate personal protective equipment, its use and maintenance are essential for the protection of a person using hazardous agrochemicals.”
