Abstract:
Saline earth and saline ground-water are mixed in the mixing pans. The clear brine (40 g/l) is poured to a height of 3-4 cm in the evaporating pans. The moist crystalline salt is shaped by the women in the homesteads into loaves, which after drying are taken by the caravan people on behalf of salt-dealers. Several operations are carried out by men.
