Costa Rica's private and public institutions in the banana sector are working together towards production systems noted for more efficient use of natural resources and for the mitigation of greenhouse gases.
Their efforts fall within the national goal of making Costa Rica a carbon neutral country by 2021.
Tropical agriculture is also shouldering its responsibility as regards climate change. This is why most banana companies are well aware of the environment; Sura Green is a representative of such values.
Sura Green’s loyalty to its collaborators, the community and the planet has led it to be recognised, obtaining certifications such as Rainforest Alliance and GlobalGAP since 2002.
In 2011, it managed to obtain verification of standard 14064:2006, making it one of the first banana farms verified as carbon neutral in Costa Rica. It is a company based on Costa Rican capital that began producing Cavendish bananas 28 years ago.
