Bangladesh is an agricultural country. Most of the working people of this country are involved in agricultural work. Although the recent urbanization and urbanization has led to the proliferation of industrial products in the country and many people are now working in mills for this purpose, most of the people are involved in agriculture in one way or another.
My father is a marginal farmer. Although we can cultivate a variety of crops where our cultivable lands are located, he usually cultivates vegetables. There are many reasons behind cultivating vegetables. This time he has cultivated patal, brinjal and karla. My father does not have two fingers on his right hand. About twenty years ago, he had an accident and later had to cut off two of his fingers. As a result, he can no longer do heavy work. As a result, he does nothing but cultivate his own land.
All three types of vegetables now have to be collected from the land once a week and sold in the market. To collect the vegetables, one has to go to the field before sunrise and collect them and take them to the market very early in the morning. It is difficult to collect so many vegetables alone. So other people have to be called to work to collect vegetables. He has to pay a fair wage. When I get home I also go to the field with Dad and help him. Occasionally my mother goes to the field to help my father.
This morning I also went to the field with my father to collect karla. About an hour before sunrise we left the house to go to the field. If we want to go to our land, we have to walk. It takes about thirty minutes to walk there from home. Today I went with my father, my mother, one of my aunts and cousins. I took these two pictures while picking vegetables. Thanks.
