Panama’s agriculture is rich and diverse, sustained by essential crops and products such as rice, corn, beans, plantains, coffee, milk, and meat—key pillars of the country’s food security. At the Panamanian Institute for Agricultural Innovation, we promote agricultural research and encourage sustainable practices that strengthen production, support small-scale producers, and contribute to the development and well-being of our rural communities.
