10 AUGUST 2017 - UBUD, BALI, INDONESIA: A farmer walks through a rice field about 1.5 kilometers from downtown Ubud. An upscale tourist hotel, that charges about $300 (US) per night is in the background. Hotels are being built in the fields because tourists want to stay in the fields. Rice is the most important crop grown on Bali and is important as a food source and a symbol of Balinese culture. In accordance with Balinese tradition, men transplant the young rice plants from nurseries to the fields and women harvest the rice when it matures. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
