EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in 1952, a train carriage filled with water buffalo makes its way through the scenic countryside en route to Sin Taung - Kalaw in Myanmar. The upland farming practices in this region, responsible for much of the prevalent erosion, are depicted in the image as jungles have been burned back, and topsoil has been farmed away for rice and corn cultivation. Abandoned fields are evident in the background, a testament to the unsustainable agricultural methods of the time. The train carriage, barred with bamboo, offers a glimpse into the past as the buffalo look out curiously at the passing landscape. This image captures the essence of rural life in the 1950s, a time when water buffalo were an essential tool for farming in the region. The buffalo's powerful presence and the open train door create a sense of connection between the animals and the land they work, highlighting the symbiotic relationship between them. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the environmental challenges faced in the region during the 1950s, with the burning of jungles and the erosion of topsoil contributing to the degradation of the land. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and complexity of rural life in Myanmar during a time of transition.
