Inventario de recursos, área del Programa de Diversificación de Turrialba. Inventario de recursos, cantón de Turrialba

This resource inventory, encompassing the economically viable area within the Turrialba Diversification Project (which includes the canton of that name and a portion of the adjoining District of Tucurrique), was carried out during July-September, 1968, by five students of the Resources for Development Unit of the Training and Research Center of the Inter-American Institute of Agricultural Sciences, under the guidance of faculty and associated members of that Unit. Its objectives were to obtain a systematic knowledge of the physical and human resources of the study area and to assess, in preliminary fashion, the possibilities for expanding and systematizing the existing diversification program of the municipality. The scope of the inventory was restricted, first of all, to the time and personnel available and, secondly, by the fact that the terms of reference included only agriculture and silviculture rather than a complete range of employment and land use alternatives for diversification (industry, tourism, etc.)
