Tomatoes are sun-dried in a village in Luxor, Egypt, on Jan. 9, 2026. Several villages across Luxor Governorate have seen a rise in tomato drying activities this season, which have become a significant income source for local farmers. The drying process takes place mainly in January and February, when Luxor enjoys warm winter sunlight. The dried tomatoes are exported to international markets, aided by government efforts to promote agricultural exports. (Xinhua/Ahmed Gomaa)
