Threshing fonio

Description:

Description: English: A woman threshes fonio the "traditional" way in Tumania, a small village in the foothills of the Futa Djallon. As she stamps on the dried grass, the grains fall to the tarp below. This is an incredibly laborious process, but it is slowly being replaced by mechanical tools across the region. : This is an image of "African people at work" from Senegal.
