Boro harvest season has begun in the haor region of Kishoreganj. After harvesting and threshing, farmers boil the paddy in large steel pots. This process of boiling rice in its husk improves its nutritional value, makes it easier to process, and extends its shelf life. The photo was taken recently in the Badla area of Itna upazila.
