September 22, 2025, Budgam, Jammu and Kashmir, India: A Kashmiri boy dries walnuts after removing their green husks during the harvest season in Budgam district, southwest of Srinagar. Walnut harvesting, which begins in late August and runs through September, is a major agricultural activity in the region. Kashmir accounts for approximately 98 per cent of India’s walnut production, much of which is exported to the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. Growers are concerned about declining prices and a drop in demand. (Credit Image: © Faisal Bashir/SOPA Images via ZUMA Press Wire) , #zumapress #photojournalism #india #walnuts #farming
