Agriculture and Trade of El Salvador

Abstract

Agricultural production in El Salvador has been increasing, but at a rate slower than population. The principal export crops--coffee, cotton, and sugar--have benefited most from improved technology and from attention to marketing by cooperative organizations. Increased corn production has resulted from many years of research and extension work with local farmers. Wheat is the country's chief agricultural import. El Salvador is an important source of coffee beans and sugar for the United States, which in turn is El Salvador's prime source for wheat. Western Europe, Japan, and the Central American Common Market are important trading partners of El Salvador.
