Costa Rica’s strong agricultural sector is underpinned by the country’s
political stability, robust economic growth and high levels of human
development. The sector has achieved significant export success, yet raising
productivity and staying competitive in world markets will require efforts to
address bottlenecks in infrastructure, innovation and access to financial
services. Maximising Costa Rica’s comparative advantage in higher-value niche
products will depend upon more efficient services to agriculture, including
better implementation of programmes, improved co-ordination among
institutions, and reduced bureaucracy. While overall protection for
agriculture is relatively low compared to OECD countries, it is nonetheless
highly distorting to production and trade. Managing the transition to
scheduled liberalisation presents an opportunity to reform costly policies,
and to implement an alternative policy package with new investments in
innovation, productivity and diversification, supported by transition
assistance where needed. Costa Rican agriculture’s vulnerability to extreme
weather events is expected to worsen with climate change, and even while the
country is among global leaders in environmental protection, sustainable
development and climate change mitigation, further adaptation efforts will be
necessary.
