Textile finishing is a diversified sector due to the processed raw materials, manufacturing technique and finalized products. Natural finishes comprises of those substances that are obtained trom plants and animals. Natural finishes have many advantages such as non toxic, non irritant, biodegradable, cost etfective, easy availability, etc. now days consumers are more aware and conscious about health, hygiene and environment so they are looking for natural product having potential like synthetic products to impart antimicrobial, aroma finish to textile products. So there is need to screen the present of phytochemicals in the plant extract because it plays an important role in imparting antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant property to textile material and also helps in dyeing and printing of textile material. In the present study phytochemical analysis of peepal leaves was done to know the presence of different phytochemical. It was found that it showed the presence of alkaloids, anthraquinone, phenol, saponins, steroids and tannins was observed in both mediums of extraction.Keywords

Cotton, paddy and wheat are major crops grown in Haryana and for these crops various agricultnral operations like transplanting, weeding, harvesting, picking and post harvesting are performed by women. They face numerous health problems while performing these tasks. These problems can be overcome by using protective clothing. Front line demonstrations are most powerful tools in communication of new ideas, methods and techniques. Hence the present study was conducted in major cotton, paddy and vegetables growing areas of Bhattu, Fatehabad, and Ratia blocks from Fatehabad district. Interventions about cotton made protective accessories were provided to farm women in peak seasons of respective crop. Intervention package was well blend combination of protective gloves, pick bag for cotton and vegetable picking, four types of cotton made masks i.e. beak mask, pleated mask, hood mask and scarf mask, along with demonstrations, motivational lectures and print literatures. The results of the study highlighted that health hazards were reduced with the use of protective gloves in vegetable and cotton picking like cuts and wounds in hands (61.67%), blisters (58.33%) and skin allergies (56.67%), respectively. Performance evaluation was assessed for both the methods i.e. conventional as well as recommended interventions. Work efficiency and income was found increased by (30.90 %) and (30.30%) in vegetable and cotton picking. Masks of cotton cambric fabric were found most suitable in terms of easy to use, face coverage and protection from dust (M.S. 2.68) followed by masks made with cotton hosiery fabric (M.S. 2.52) and cotton poplin (M.S. 2.34), respectively. Perceived Adoption Feasibility Index was found 84.92 percent in terms of four attributes namely relative advantage (91.78%), compatibility (92.78%), simplicity complexity (74.83%) and triability (80.28 %), respectively.Keywords

The processes like harvesting, threshing, handling and storage of grain generate potentially high concentrations of organic dust, including particles trom grain, fungi, and bacteria, as well as inorganic material. For creating awareness regarding protective clothing amongst farm workers, pamphlets and video film was showed to them to recognize the health hazards they face in absence of protective clothing and use of protective clothing was also demonstrated in the present study. On comparison of change in awareness of respondents of all the nine blocks of Hisar district with reference to 'Dust/husk stick on Head, face and neck','f- values explained that awareness was found to be maximum in case of Hisar-II block (t=4.09, 5.38 & 4.09), respectively followed by Hansi-I block (t=2.69) for Head, Adampur (t=4.39) for face and Agroha (t=3.80) for neck. In most of the health problems significant different was found in the awareness of farms workers engaged in harvesting and threshing activities.Keywords
