The economy of Dominica is dependent mainly on
agriculture and the tourism
industry. Items of export include
banana, tobacco,
vegetables, coconut
oil and so forth. Its economy is marked by
low rates of employment and
GDP and high rates of
poverty.The average daily expense for a tourist will be
anywhere between 300 XCD and 1000 XCD
depending on where one stays and eats. It is best to
hire a car for exploring the island. Im too busy today for dealing with digital scrapbooking software with you.
