The sugarcane wedding tradition at PG Modjopanggung Tulungagung

Local residents place a pair of miniature bridal figures as part of the 'manten tebu' tradition on the conveyor belt of a sugarcane milling machine at PG Modjopanggoong, Tulungagung, East Java, on Saturday (9/5/2026). The 'manten tebu' tradition, held to mark the start of the milling season, is part of an ancestral cultural ritual at the state-owned sugar factory, while also supporting the target of increasing national sugar production and strengthening the government's sugar self-sufficiency program.
