Agriculture in Cuba

Urban Farm DB summary

This Wikipedia article on Cuban agriculture states the Soviets provided 63% of Cuba's food imports and 90% of its petroleum before 1990; after the collapse, agricultural production fell 54% between 1989 and 1994. By 2002, 35,000 acres (140 km2) of urban gardens produced 3.4 million metric tons of food, 90% of Havana's fresh produce came from local urban farms, and by 2003 more than 200,000 Cubans worked in the expanding urban agriculture sector. More recently, cooperatives and family farmers manage about 69% of Cuba's agricultural land.
