Spinal curvature at cervical and lumber region :

As the woman adopt different postures during fodder collection the angle of deviation from the normal position was measured at cervical and lumber regions. It was observed that percentage deviation in the cervical region from the normal posture was determined to be 2.82 per cent and 0.98 per cent while cutting fodder among women belonging to two age groups viz., 21-30 yr. and 31-40 yr. It was 1.49 and 5.42 per cent respectively in two age groups during backward journey. The reason for the same could be due to heavy load (43.8 Kg ) that women carry back home
