Transplanting rice seedlings is backbreaking work for Thai farmers, who in 2016–17 produced an estimated eighteen million metric tons of long-grain Jasmine rice. The world's largest producer of rice, Thailand harvests two crops a year in the wet and dry seasons. Near Can Tho, Vietnamese traders in dugout boats ply one of the Mekong Delta's endless waterways. But the fabled Mekong is both shrinking and sinking because of multiple dams under construction further upstream. | © Steve Raymer / National Geographic Creative
