Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dominican Republic: Agriculture and Trade The Dominican Republic, situated in the heart of the Caribbean, is often termed the Cradle of the Americas. Santo Domingo, the capital, is the oldest permanent settlement of European origin in the Americas. While the Spaniards were pushing out toward continental America, this settlement became the hub of Spanish influence in the New World. The original Indian strain found in the country has long since lost its identity in the population. Today the principal racial strains are comprised of the descendants of the early Spanish colonists and of Negro slaves imported from Africa. About 15 percent of the population is white, 15-percent Negro, and 70 percent of mixed blood. Like most of the Latin American countries, the Dominican Republic depends on a small number of agricultural products for its income. Agricultural activities have long been directed largely to the production of the major export crops, particularly sugar. Not only does the country lean heavily on sugar exports to provide foreign exchange, but internal trade and employment are widely influenced by the foreign market which determines how much, and at what price, sugar can be sold abroad. The industrial sector is small but growing. Processing sugarcane is the principal industry, but other established plants are turning out cement; glass; textiles; bags, rope, and binder twine of sisal; such products as soaps, detergents, and toothpaste; cement and asbestos water pipe; furfural; flour; and meat and dairy products. In addition, there are several shoe and leather goods factories, garment factories, and many other smaller industries in the country. The Government is encouraging foreign investment, and in October 1962 passed a law which provided greater protection to agents of foreign firms. Principal products mined and exported are bauxite, salt, gypsum, and iron ore. The country contains fairly large deposits of nickel-bearing ore that are being developed. Although drilling for oil continues, so far it has not been discovered in commercial quantities. As there is no coal, gas, or oil produced in the country, fuels most commonly used are bagasse (used in some sugar mills) and locally produced charcoal.

Download or read book The Agriculture of Cuba Classic Reprint written by P. G. Minneman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Agriculture of Cuba As one of our nearest foreign neighbors, Cuba is located in a strategic position for the defense of the United States. It lies squarely across the entrance to the entire Gulf of Mexico, whose waters wash the shores of five of the Southern States, and it lies across the northern approach to the Caribbean Sea and the Panama Canal. Not only are good will and close cooperation between Cuba and the United States vital for defense, but Cuba is also the most important of all the Latin American countries from the standpoint of the volume of trade with the United States, particularly in agricultural products. During recent years, 1936 - 40, the total trade with Cuba averaged about 200 million dollars annually and constituted about one-fifth Of the total United States trade with all the 20 Latin American countries. The extent to which Cuba depends upon the United States is indicated by the fact that more than three-fourths of Cuba's total exports during recent years have been to the United States and, in turn, Cuba has obtained more than two-thirds of its imports from this country.
