The tradition of the sugarcane brides at PG Modjopanggung, Tulungagung

Residents dressed in traditional Javanese attire paraded a pair of miniature brides and grooms as part of the manten tebu tradition at PG Modjopanggoong, Tulungagung, East Java, on Saturday (5/9/2026). The manten tebu tradition, held to mark the beginning of the milling season, is part of a long-standing cultural ritual at the state-owned sugar factory, and simultaneously supports the target of increasing national sugar production and strengthening the government's sugar self-sufficiency program.
