Parimita Ghosh delicately picking some collard greens from a waterbody near her home in Beel Pabla area of Khulna’s Dumuria upazila yesterday. The swelling of small waterbodies during the monsoon triggers the growth of various semi-aquatic plants, including different kinds of spinach and edible greens. From morning to noon, Parimita collects these, bundles them up and then sets off to the local market in the afternoon to sell them. Through this, she earns Tk 250-300 per day.
