Costa Rican pineapple growers face challenge

Achieving high standards of sustainable development is the major challenge that small-scale pineapple producers face when exporting and taking advantage of the trade benefits they recently achieved in China and in other captive markets, such as Europe and the United States.

The management of natural resources, the need to implement recycling plans, and the treatment of liquid residues and wastewater are just some of the challenges still pending, according to the Latin American Center and Sustainable Development of the Incae business school.
