Economy of Mero

JuteVilla
Since European settlers first landed on Dominica, agriculture has been the top economic pursuit on the island. Its rich soil made fertile planting grounds for many crops, especially bananas, which enjoyed a region-wide preference in Europe until recently.

Bananas are a popular fruit for export in the Caribbean, and Dominica relied upon this cash crop for hundreds of years to support its economy. Many islanders work on banana farms and others are involved in their export. Until recently, bananas accounted for about 80 percent of Dominica's Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
