Abstract

This study presents a literature review and a comparison of selected body dimensions included in many anthropometric surveys. The main purpose of this study is to determine the measurements and variables that need to be included in a study of anthropometry for agricultural workers in Madura Island, Indonesia. The comparison and review were performed with studies selected from publications that were found in a literature search performed on Scopus and Google Scholar databases. The considered studies have an explicit statement describing the reason of their data collection for the design of agricultural tools and equipment and report data collected later than 2000. The review was performed by identifying the measurement included in each study and by comparing their measuring device/ equipment and methods. Each study involved a different number of hand measures. Each study had their own reasons in defining the anthropometric measures involved. However, it can be generally concluded that the studies selected the measures based on certain criteria, especially the need of the relevant body dimensions in agricultural tools and equipment design.
