Sowing field in Anyuakland
A man digging a series of small holes in a field using a long stick or spear, ready to sow seed and cover them over. Predominantly agriculturalists, the Anuak clear the fields (often in forest soil) sometime around March and April and sow in May as the rains come on. The location is noted as Cam-war-Akwei's village, Utalo.
