Sugarcane Harvest

This week's "World at Work," a weekly slideshow featuring economic events from around the world through the photography of Bloomberg News, photographer Andrey Rudakov looks at Cuba's sugarcane crop. Brazilian company Odebrecht signed a 13-year contract in 2012 to manage a sugar refinery in Cuba, where President Raul Castro's government is trying to breathe new life into the once-iconic crop that has fallen on hard times.
