Crops

Ad: Nature's Bounty

2002: Varied, but the largest productions in 2000 are banana and mango. Approximately 42% of the land is devoted to agriculture.

Cagayan de Oro is the central market of agricultural products from its neighbors. Recently, a group of organic farmers in Bukidnon has formed an association, selling their products at Nature's Bounty. The outlet offers organically-grown rice, vegetables, eggs and other goods.

Clay in Bulua has spawned several pottery shops. [See also "Soil" in Geography.]
