The diversity of climates and extensive hydrographic networks allow for a wide range of agricultural production. Grasslands and savannahs can support around 40 million head of livestock.
Tropical forests, covering 135 million hectares (52% of the territory), represent a major reserve of biodiversity and exploitable land. Irrigation potential is estimated at 4 million hectares.
