La Maná

La Maná is a canton located in the province of Cotopaxi, Ecuador. It is situated in the western part of the province, bordering the coastal province of Los Ríos. The canton's capital is also named La Maná.

La Maná is primarily an agricultural area, with its economy largely based on the cultivation of crops such as bananas, cocoa, coffee, and various fruits and vegetables. Cattle ranching also plays a significant role in the local economy.

The canton is known for its lush vegetation and diverse landscapes, ranging from tropical rainforests to rolling hills. Ecotourism is a developing sector, with opportunities for hiking, birdwatching, and exploring the natural beauty of the region.

The area has a relatively recent history of significant population growth due to migration from other parts of Ecuador, attracted by the agricultural opportunities. The town of La Maná serves as a commercial center for the surrounding rural communities.
