Farming
 
Farmhouse next to a newly planted sugarcane field. Sugar is Cuba's main crop and a major source of hard currency.   Houses at a cooperative farm.

This is how sugarcane is transported at a typical cooperative.

What vintage do you think this is? From the same cooperative as the one above that uses ox-drawn carts.
This one is having a bit of maintenance.
