Of the 5 million hectares that comprise its territory, half are pastures. Beef production is carried out under extensive and semi-extensive systems of grazing. Low prices of meat in the international markets, along with low production and productivity indexes per unit area, have led to a significant reduction in the cattle population, from 2.1 million head in 1988 to an estimated to 1.6 million in 1994, in contrast with the human population which continues to grow at a steady 2.5 per year. Since 1987, milk production has become a more important economic activity in milk production that year, generating a small but growing surplus of milk for export to neighboring countries
