Journal Title: International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Analysis - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
This is quasi-experimental research on the chemical management using the safety theory for farmers in Ubon Ratchathani Province. The population was the select 782 households voluntarily to participate in the research project. One person per household was selected. As a result, a total of 213 samples were obtained. The research was conducted by implementing a safety program based on the 3E principle for 3 consecutive months to the samples. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (paired sample t-test). The results revealed that most of the farmers (94.8%) used liquid chemicals, especially herbicides, aphicides and insecticides with a high level of exposure to chemicals. After the safety program was implemented, the satisfaction also significantly increased compared to that of before the safety program was implemented (P-Value < 0.001In terms of Engineering, according to the design of a chemical fume hood, the air velocity was 0.31 m/s compared to the ACGIH standard that the air velocity must be between 0.25-0.5 m/s. Therefore, the chemical fume hood met the ACGIH standard. In terms of Enforcement, it gained a high level of satisfaction. In conclusion, the chemical management based on the 3E principle can appropriately manage safety in chemical use in the community by enhancing farmers’ knowledge and attitudes, leading to safety behaviors in chemical use in the community in a better direction. Therefore, it can be applied to safety management in other communities.
