  • The market in Bati is incredibly large, diverse and crowded, being the place where people from the lowlands and highlands of northern Ethiopia meet to exchange their crops, livestock and wares. Something like 20,000 people show up at the Monday market every week. <br />
<br />
Grain is an extremely important commodity, including the all important teff for making injera. Farmers and sellers lay their grain out in bags and piles on plastic sheeting on the ground, and measure it out with tin cans. <br />
<br />
The cattle and camel market is equally large, with pastoral herders from the lowlands, many of them Afar people, coming to sell their livestock to the highland people. The market takes place in one big corral, with buyers and sellers squeezed in amongst the animals.

  • Local wheat varieties in test plants at the Ejere Farming Community Seed Bank in Ejere, Ethiopia.

  • Threshing rice in a field in Bali. This woman is doing second harvest, trying to get the last of the rice from the bundles that have already been threshed by the women in the background. This is essentially charity gleaning, and she can take home (for free) up to 7kg of the rice. About one big bowl, which might feed her for a couple of days. <br />
<br />
Her name is Dadong Angga.

It is a big day of celebration in the town and people like Annie and Rene Louboutin dress in traditional costume, walk the route and celebrate with friends afterwards.
