Tomato-Drying Season Gets an Early Start in Luxor

The tomato-drying season has begun early in Egypt’s Luxor governorate, with the first drying sites starting work as weather conditions improve.

The early start allows those operating the sites to take advantage of the favorable weather the city is experiencing in recent days.

Live footage from inside one of the first sites to begin work offered a look at the opening of the season.

The scenes mark the first signs of this year’s tomato-drying activity in Luxor, where the changing weather has provided an opportunity to get operations under way.
