KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -In Cuba, over 300, 000 urban farms and gardens produce about 50 percent of the island’s fresh produce supply, along with 39, 000 tons of meat and 216 million eggs. Most Cuban urban farmers reach yields of 44 pounds (20 kilograms) per square meter per year.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant and animal life. Cuba’s lush tropical plant life includes thousands of flowering plant species, half of which may be endemic to the archipelago. Much of the original vegetation has been replaced by sugarcane, coffee, and rice plantations, made possible by the wide-scale and indiscriminate destruction of forests.
