Comoros's Economy
Comoros is one of the world’s poorest and smallest economies and comprises three islands that are hindered by weak transportation connections, an increasing population, and limited natural resources. The workforce is focused on nurturing a subsistence economy due to its low level of education. The key sectors of the economy where most of the workforce are involved are agriculture, fishing, hunting, and forestry, which contribute an estimate of 50% of GDP. Income from exports is mainly dependent on three major agricultural crops, namely vanilla, cloves and ylang-ylang (perfume essence).
