Traditional sugar producing, which is based on planting and harvesting sugar canes and processing them to produce sugar, is among professions that are fading away in Iran.
Davoud Alizadeh is a 58-year-old farmer in northern Iran. He is from a village in Sowme’eh Sara town in the northern province of Gilan. He has been planting sugar cane and producing sugar in a traditional way for about 40 years. According to him, all the villagers are involved in farming sugar cane and have their own traditional sugar-producing workshops.
Alizadeh says after harvesting and drying the canes, he and the villagers have to work non-stop for about 10 hours to produce sugar. During the process, they have to actively oversee and put hard efforts into completing the process to produce sugar.
