Agricultural production in San Juan Province

Overview

San Juan Province is established as a vital agricultural hub in the Dominican Republic, characterized by a large-scale productive structure and a high concentration of family farming. The region maintains a significant number of producers and plots, focusing on crops essential for national food security such as beans, corn, and cassava.

Recent developments highlight specific industrial growth within the province, notably through a strategic partnership between the Plan for the Economic Development of San Juan Province and Tabacalera El Artista. This agreement for the 2026-2027 tobacco harvest aims to transform San Juan into a self-sustaining tobacco hub. The initiative is expected to increase local employment from 300 to 800 positions by providing direct purchase contracts to farmers, which can then serve as collateral for agricultural loans.
