Cuban farming primarily focuses on the cultivation of crops like sugarcane, tobacco, and coffee. The country's diverse climate allows for a variety of agricultural practices, including both traditional and organic methods. Many farmers use small-scale, family-run farms, which contribute significantly to local food production. In recent years, the Cuban government has encouraged urban agriculture to enhance food security. This initiative promotes the use of community gardens and rooftop farming in cities, allowing residents to grow their own vegetables and herbs. These efforts aim to reduce reliance on imported food and improve nutrition for the population.
