The Aragua River is a South America river in Aragua State, Venezuela. The river flows from the northern part of the state into the endorheic Lake Valencia, and is the lake's main tributary.[1]
Agriculture
The Aragua River irrigates a vast valley, enriching it with fertile deposits that make its soil one of the most fertile in the country.[citation needed] Sugarcane is the chief produce of the region, and potatoes have yielded high commercial returns. The valley is also known for crops like cacao, coffee, cotton, corn, rice, and tobacco.[2]
