Two women cut the ripe rice stalks for harvesting in the terraced rice fields of the Hyangja village in Nepal. Nepali women work hard farming, in addition to taking care of the household work. Early varieties of rice, which require less time to ripen, are harvested in September, though typically rice harvesting is done in late October. The ripe rice stalks are cut and laid on the field to dry before they are hauled to a different location for threshing.
