A farmer uses a power tiller to prepare a waterlogged field for Aman paddy amid steady rain in the Lobonchara area of Khulna yesterday. Continuous monsoon rains have left fields waterlogged, making it easier for farmers to prepare land for transplanting the crop. Timely land preparation and transplanting are crucial for a good harvest, and favourable conditions early in the season increase the likelihood of a good yield. PHOTO: HABIBUR RAHMAN

A bamboo scaffold props up a leaning electricity pole carrying power across Boro Haor in Mithamoin upazila of Kishoreganj.
