Abstract : Noise is the most significant problem in agriculture. Most of the farmers and farm workers are exposed to noise
levels greater than the recommended levels (85dBA). This study was conducted to have information about tractor farm noise
levels and their emission. The sources of noise were identified and it was found that the most of noise generation was at the
transmission and muffler opening, engine, bonnet and radiator fan. Tractor needs proper maintenance for their efficient
working or else noise emission will be higher with increasing tractor life. Proper scheduled repair and maintenance along
with use of vibration isolators may help in noise reduction.
Keywords: Tractor noise problem, sound pressure level, health hazard, ergonomics, tractor usage.
