Costa Rica's agriculture sector contribution to GDP saw a steady decline from in 1990 to around by 2022. This decrease highlights Costa Rica's shift toward eco-tourism and technology-driven sectors, spurred by government efforts to diversify the economy. The drop was particularly pronounced in the late 1990s, as sectors like tourism and technology services gained traction.
Despite this, agriculture remains a key part of Costa Rica’s export economy, particularly in high-demand products like bananas, coffee, and pineapples. The sector's stable share around 4.1- in recent years underscores its sustained role in export revenue, even as Costa Rica transitions toward a service-oriented economy.
