according to Wikipedia: "French Guiana is heavily dependent on France for subsidies, trade, and goods. The main industries are fishing (accounting for three-quarters of foreign exports), gold mining and timber. In addition, the Guiana space Centre at Kourou accounts for 25% of the GDP and employs about 1700 people. There is very little manufacturing. Agriculture is largely undeveloped and is mainly confined to the area near the coast - sugar and bananas are two of the main cash crops grown. Tourism is growing. Unemployment is a major problem, running at about 20% to 30%."
