PhotoFeed Contest - Portrait Photography Round 122 ~ Portrait of the Struggle of Pidie Jaya Farmers

Hello....

In the PhotoFeed Contest - Portrait Photography Round 122 held by @Photofeed, I tried to share a photo of a farmer going to the rice field.

The photo I shared on this occasion is about a farmer in Pidie Jaya, Aceh, walking to his rice field. With a hoe on his shoulder and a blue cloth bag hanging from his hand, this figure depicts the daily life of a traditional farmer who is full of enthusiasm and dedication. The background of the expanse of green rice fields indicates the ongoing planting season, an important moment in the agricultural cycle. Simple clothes and a wide-brimmed hat worn protect him from the hot sun while working in the fields.

The footsteps of the farmer walking along the rice field embankment show how familiar he is with the wet and slippery terrain. He walks steadily without shoes, reflecting the toughness and physical strength honed from years of habit. Farmers like this are the backbone of regional food security, working tirelessly to ensure that the rice grows well and the harvest runs smoothly.

Pidie Jaya is known as one of the rice-producing areas in Aceh, and farmers in this area play a vital role in maintaining food production. Although agricultural technology is increasingly advanced, many farmers here still rely on traditional methods as seen in the photo. The hoe is a symbol of manual hard work and the bag they carry is likely to contain supplies or seeds to be planted.

This photo not only records routine but also implies cultural values ​​and local wisdom that are strongly attached to the farming community. The life of farmers in Pidie Jaya is not just about farming but also about maintaining ancestral heritage, maintaining relationships with nature and being part of a mutually supportive social system. This photo is a silent witness to a silent struggle that is often forgotten, but is very important for the lives of many people.

That's all my post for this occasion, I hope my friends like it, thank you very much to my friends who have read this post.
