Global Map of Irrigation Areas

French Guiana

For French Guyana no information could be found on irrigated areas on sub-national level. In the whole of French Guyana about 2 000 ha are equipped for irrigation. The figure refers to 1995 [GF01]. The irrigated area within French Guiana was distributed based on a map of the major cropping areas in 1979 [GF02].
