The Wider Image: Bangladesh farmers revive floating farms to fight climate change
A farmer irrigates his floating bed, at his farm in Pirojpur district, Bangladesh, August 16, 2022. Many farmers in the southwestern part of Bangladesh plant crop seedlings and grow vegetables on the floating rafts made from invasive water hyacinths during monsoon seasons when dry land is scarce to ensure food security as the low-lying country has been experiencing prolonged floods and water-logging because of the changing climate in recent times.
