佛得角群岛最广泛的农业活动是用于国内消费的园艺活动。花园作物包括玉米、木薯、番薯和香蕉。佛得角只有约11.2％的土地面积适合作物生产。频繁的干旱往往会加剧持续的水资源短缺。
2003年，农业产业雇佣了大约21％的活跃人口，占国内生产总值的15％。2004年作物的估计产量如下：甘蔗14,000吨，玉米 14,000吨，香蕉 6000吨，椰子 5000吨，芒果 4500吨，木薯 3000吨，土豆 3500吨。
只有SãoTiago岛、São Vicente岛、São Nicolau岛、Fogo岛和 Santo Antão岛才有适合种植经济作物的条件。香蕉几乎是唯一出口的农作物，种植在灌溉土地上。
