  • Abstract
    Innovative cotton harvesting bag (ICHB) was designed by Ms. Sunita Chauhan of Farm Science Centre, Central Institute for Cotton Research, Nagpur. ICHB was most acceptable for ease in tying, picking, emptying, load carrying and ergonomically efficient compared to other back and front loaded cotton harvesting bags. Significantly 42% higher cotton was harvested and area covered hour-1 over traditional system. ICHB was most efficient in cotton picking with 86% higher output of cotton harvested and cotton harvest area covered heart beat -1 among all cotton pickings. Ergonomics of cotton harvesting was significantly influenced by pickings, time of harvest, age of cotton harvesters in Bt hybrid cotton.
