Limon to host Costa Rica's first carbon neutrality centre | The Costa Rica News
Scientists at Los Diamantes develop genetic improvement programs in papaya, guava, pejibaye and cas plantations. They also evaluate promising materials extracted from tropical roots, fruits, and banana; and study management practices in palmetto, fruits, and other tropical crops.San José Costa Rica. The Experimental Station “Los Diamantes”, in Limon, will soon be declared to be the first Government owned farm to reach a net zero carbon footprint. Its main objective is to reproduce the model in other farmlands throughout the country.
“Los Diamantes is the best experimental station owned by the agricultural public sector, not only because of its extension, but also because of its own richness and biodiversity. That is why we are certain that it will be the first experimental station in the country to become and get certified as carbon neutral”, said Tania López, Vice-minister of Agriculture.
