Traditional Rice Harvesting In Nepal

A woman winnows the chaff from unhusked rice after harvesting at the outskirts of Kathmandu Valley, Nepal, on November 5, 2025. Rice harvesting in Nepal, especially in the Terai and valley regions, is a labor-intensive process involving cutting mature paddy with sickles, bundling stalks, sun-drying the harvested rice, and then winnowing to separate the grains from the husks. This traditional method, passed down through generations, sustains local communities and preserves agricultural heritage. (Photo by Safal Prakash Shrestha/NurPhoto)
