Tomato Harvest - Bangladesh

Tomato Harvest - Bangladesh

Workers are surrounded by heaps of vibrant red tomatoes, carefully sorting and boxing the produce for distribution. Farmers from nearby villages arrive with freshly harvested tomatoes, washed and organized for sale at the busy winter wholesale market. Juicy red tomatoes ripen under the Bangladesh sun as workers pick out the best fruits for sale. Then, the tomatoes are transported nationwide and often processed into ketchup and tomato paste. Workers meticulously package the fruit into crates, though each 25 kg batch sells for only about 10 USD, reflecting seasonal price dips. This market provides essential income for farmers, helping them cover summer planting costs and sustain their livelihoods. Bogura, Bangladesh, January 06, 2025.
