The image depicts an active open-air market in Kujama, Nigeria, characterized by the prominent display and sale of sugarcane. In the foreground, a young adult male with dark skin and short dark hair, wearing a light-colored t-shirt and dark trousers, stands behind a makeshift wooden table. He is actively using a silver-bladed knife to peel a light-yellow sugarcane stalk held in his left hand. On the table, covered by a clear plastic sheet, are numerous sections of peeled sugarcane, uniformly cut and stacked horizontally. A black plastic bag rests on the table behind these stalks. To the left of the table, on the muddy ground, are bundles of raw, unpeeled sugarcane, exhibiting dark purple, reddish, and green segments. In the midground, to the left of the central figure, a man in a dark green t-shirt with a white logo crouches or sits on the ground, observing the scene. To the right of the central figure, a child in a red and blue patterned shirt pushes a metal wheelbarrow filled with unpeeled sugarcane. Further back, a woman in a light-colored traditional garment and head covering walks while carrying a large bundle of green stalks on her head. The background features a bustling crowd of various individuals, including men, women, and children, interspersed with large piles of sugarcane stalks on the ground. Makeshift market stalls with corrugated metal roofs and red sun umbrellas are visible in the distance, alongside stacks of large white sacks. The ground throughout the market appears uneven and unpaved. The sky is overcast.
