ProjectExperiences With Manually Operated Net-Braiding Machine In Bangladesh - BOBP/WP/50 1986
Also available in:
No results found.This paper documents the BOBP’s experience with intermediate technology for net manufacture in Chittagong, Bangladesh. The intermediate technology tool was a manually operated net machine, originally of Japanese design but modified by a Bombay firm. It was hoped that the net machine could be operated by fisherwomen to supplement family incomes and also increase the supply of gillnets. The Bombay suppliers of the machine assisted in installing the manually operated machine in Bangladesh and in training fisherwomen to operate it. The machine was tried out at the CAR ITAS-supported Kalidaha Fishing Project near Chittagong from May 1982 to March 1 984 and by a private entrepreneur from February 1985 to April 1986. A comparative study was carried out between the manually operated machine, hand-braiding of nets and industrial net-making. On behalf of the Directorate of Fisheries, Bangladesh, Mr. A Bashiruddin, Assistant Inspector of Fisheries, Chittagong supervised the trials. From the BOBP, Mr. G. Pajot, Senior Fishing Technologist, and Mr. A Kashem, Project Officer in Bangladesh, provided monitoring and coordination. -
Poster, bannerSafe and correct use of powered machines 2021
Also available in:
No results found.As women and men farmers are increasingly adopting powered and automated equipment, the dangers of related accidents are rising. These accidents can cause grievous bodily harm from simple cuts and scrapes to loss of fingers, limbs and life. Operators of these machines must be very conscious and constantly aware of the safety of everyone involved and working near these powered machines. A poster on the safety and the correct use of powered machines should be made available in the communities. Please print this safety poster and display it at the mechanization service centres and where gatherings take place. There is great need to create many other safety posters for other popular powered agricultural machinery.
