Windows of the Sea



This is a beach where salt is being produced, lets say Salt Farm
The picture was taken from a shelter where pure salt water is kept for days before they being sun dried outside the shelter


Do you know that a pure salt that you consume is take a million hard works?
first is to crystallize the sea water on the sea sand
under the sun
for days
if its rain
they need to do it over and over again
then stock down the  crystallize salt in the selter
for days

continued by sun dried again on the wooden benches
for days
in the end
the crystal will successfully farmed
taken approximately weeks until harvested


one litter of sea water
is perhaps equal to few grams of salt crystal
how much is it cost?
very cheappp....


taken down from the farmer directly?
perhaps around $ 1 per pond
imagine the hardwork and labor cost?


when its exported to the States or Europe
it will be cost maybe 3 times or 4 times than original price, pricey

whoaaa......the farmer just need to survive their living
they some times doesnt even know their fee to produce export quality salt
as the salt is bought by local exporter and distributor with cheap price tag


and name it, some of em called it 'Local Community support'
as they help the farmer to sell their salt
they know how to sale and whole marketing thingies
i bet the farmer doesnt even know how much is it sale outside there


window of the sea
make a living
for these people...
