Excellent portrait of life and I'll bet these children are used to hard work on the farm...They look healthy and they have strength at a young age.

Quite right, they are tools use to clear brush and weeds from farm land. It is more accurate to think of them as the equivalent of a carpenter's hammer or a mason's trowel than as weapons.

A great photo but somewhat disturbing even if the machetes are more tools than weapons. Powerful image!
