Pineapple Cultivation Veto in Costa Rica

Two municipalities in the Costa Rican Caribbean have extended and reinforced a ban on agricultural, industrial or commercial activities related to pineapples.

Wednesday, May 2, 2012

The Caribbean cantons of Pocosí and Guácimo have extended the moratorium on pineapples because of vulnerability of the land used and problems of environmental regulation.

"The Pococí Council has agreed not to authorize or grant municipal licenses, or earth removal or construction licenses, for activities related to planting and growth, industrialization, export, distribution and marketing of pineapples. (...) Meanwhile, the regulators at Guácimo decided to extend a moratorium on pineapples for two years in the southern canton, a vulnerable zone and aquifer recharge location," reported Nacion.com.
