This irrigation ditch is in western Madagascar, near Croisement Belo. It distributes water to rice paddies from the main canal several kilometers away. The tree in the background is a baobab. This type of tree has adapted itself to store water in its trunk and lose its leaves during the nine-month-long dry season.
