The Industry and Agriculture of Belize

Sugar Cane is Belize's chief crop. Oranges, bananas, and grapefruit are second in importance. Belize's industries are small. They are sugar refining, processing foods and wood, and making clothing, cement, and bricks. Processed sugar is the main export. Belize's forests yield lumber, including pine and tropical hardwoods. The Caribbean Sea provides conchs, fish, lobster, and shrimp. Everyone in Belize is working to develop the tourist industry by building hotels and other facilities.
