EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of agricultural practices in Sri Lanka's Nuwara Eliya region. The hand-painted billboard poster, advertising Glycel weed killer fertiliser from Anglo Asian Fertilisers, stands tall against the backdrop of lush green fields and rolling hills. The eye-catching artwork draws attention to Glyphosate, a systemic herbicide originally patented by Monsanto Company as Roundup. In this snapshot, we witness the intersection of tradition and modernity in farming techniques. As farmers strive for higher yields and efficient crop production, they turn to agrochemicals like Glycel to combat stubborn weeds that threaten their harvests. However, it is important to note that this image does not promote commercial use but rather serves as a documentation of local agricultural practices. The presence of this billboard also raises environmental concerns and highlights ongoing debates surrounding glyphosate usage worldwide. While some argue its effectiveness in increasing productivity, others raise questions about its impact on the environment and potential health risks associated with prolonged exposure. Photographer Paul Seheult skillfully captures these complex issues within a single frame - an amalgamation of vibrant colors juxtaposed against nature's beauty. This thought-provoking image invites viewers to reflect upon the delicate balance between agriculture's progress and our responsibility towards sustainable farming practices amidst evolving green issues.
