Abstract. This narrative review compares the evidence on occupational hazards associated with tractors, combine harvesters, seed drills and field sprayers. Eight publications and technical documents were examined by machine, task, injury mechanism and outcome. A review of tractor overturns supports rollover protection, whereas a synthesis of adult education trials found no clear reduction in injury rates. Hospital records identify maintenance as an important injury setting. Combine and seed drill documents describe guarding and design controls, while pesticide studies distinguish exposure during mixing, loading and spraying. The evidence supports inspecting safeguards at the tasks where workers encounter the hazard. The available data do not establish injury rates for these machines in Uzbekistan.
Keywords: farm machinery, combine harvester, seed drill, field sprayer, occupational injury, guarding.
