Adult women of Mbale further sieving remains from a Rice Husking mill in pursuit of rice grains. These women do this long enough regularly to get out meal-worthy amounts of rice to feed their families. Rice, which is also a delicacy that is only had on special occasions in some rural areas costs a little higher than most of other food stuffs in market places. Women, remain major bread winners in Ugandan homesteads even where they are not single mothers as responsibility is often dumped by men who choose alcohol and extra families.
