Suriname Agriculture Profile 2012
Farming is done mostly on the coastal plain, where systems of dikes, canals, and pumps drain the land and supply irrigation water during the dry seasons. There are a few plantations, but most farms are small. Rice occupies most of the cultivated land. Also important are citrus fruits, palm oil, bananas, and sugar. Hardwood timber is cut in the interior.
