The '''economy of French Guiana''' is tied closely to that of mainland France through subsidies and imports. Besides the [[Guiana Space Centre|French space center]] at [[Kourou]], [[fishing]] and [[forestry]] are the most important economic activities in [[French Guiana]]. The large reserves of tropical hardwoods, not fully exploited, support an expanding sawmill industry which provides saw logs for export. Cultivation of crops is limited to the coastal area, where the population is largely concentrated; [[rice]] and [[manioc]] are the major crops. French Guiana is heavily dependent on imports of food and energy. [[Unemployment]] is a serious problem, particularly among younger workers.
