Sugar cane harvest, Mauritius

Sugar cane harvest. Women manually harvesting burnt sugarcane (Saccharum sp.). Burning the sugarcane before harvesting reduces the costs of transporting and also reduces the time needed to harvest the cane. Local villagers form co-operatives to harvest the cane and then share the payment they receive. Photographed in Mauritius
