    The economy of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is based on agriculture and accounted for a percentage of GDP in 1997. Arable land accounts for more than 1 3 of the total land area. Bananas, kudzu potatoes, sugar cane, coconuts, etc. are mainly grown.

    Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is the world's largest producer of arrowroot, and bananas are the main cash crop in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, accounting for more than half of total export earnings. There are a small number of small-scale agro-processing industries on the island, as well as small-scale industries such as clothing, leather, oil extraction and soap. Small-scale manufacturing has been slow to grow, with the main products being cement, flour and furniture.

    Tourism occupies an important place in the national economy.

    The volcanic eruption in 1979 and the hurricane in 1980 almost completely wiped out local agriculture and the tourism industry, which has now gradually recovered. Kingston, the capital of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, is the economic center of the country, located on the waterfront in the southwest of Saint Vincent Island, at an altitude of only 7 meters, making it one of the lowest altitude capitals in the Windward Islands. Kingston is one of the most secluded cities in the West Indies, surrounded by the sea on three sides, surrounded by green tropical trees and flowers, and the blue waters and beautiful beaches add to the charm of the city.

    There are five arrowroot flour factories and two coconut-producing factories in Kingston, as well as small factories for cigarettes, sugar, liquor, furniture, clothing and linen products, as well as flour mills and banana box factories in the suburbs of Kingston. The Port of Kingston is the country's main transportation hub for the import and export of goods, and during the banana harvest season, ships from all over the world come and go, bringing vitality to the city. Kingston's Botanical Gardens are also well-known in North America, having been established in 1763 and planted with bread trees transplanted from the islands of the South Pacific, in addition to the famous tropical trees of the Caribbean.

    The fruit of this tree is a popular food not only for the inhabitants of this island nation, but also for the inhabitants of other islands of the West Indies.
