Located about 55 miles north along the Philip Goldson Highway formerly the old "Northern Highway", Orange Walk is a drive of about 65 minutes from Belize City. It is an easy 30 mile drive to Corozal Town. The Orange Walk District, with a population of just over forty thousand, is the country’s third largest populated district and is much more than sugar, soybean and honey country. Orange Walk provides exotic places to visit. The sights and sounds of nature abound here, either at the famous Mayan ruins of Lamanai and Cuello, or at various places along the New River for the jungle river adventurer. And, with over 400 species of birds recorded in this district, more so than anywhere else in the country, the Orange Walk District is truly a birder’s paradise. The town is a mix of Spanish, Maya, East Indians, visiting Mennonites and Chinese. Mexican influences remain strong and Spanish and Creole are the most common languages spoken. Orange Walk District was previously dominated by loggers for over a hundred years until the refugees of the Caste War arrived in the late 19th century. At the time of logging, all the timber... contact agent for more info.

1.0 Overview of IDB Invest Scope of Review BSI Has an Annual Crushing
IDBInvest Belize Sugar Industries Limited 1.0 Overview of IDB Invest Scope of Review BSI has an annual crushing capacity of 1.3 million tons of sugarcane, with an average daily milling throughput of 6,800 tons. The mill is in Tower Hill, Orange Walk District, and receives sugarcane from more than 5,000 independent cane suppliers, of which some 1,000 are women. Ninety per cent of farmers are small holders with farm sizes less than 8 ha, of which 35% are less than 2 ha. BSI produces enough sugar to meet the demand of the domestic sugar market, with the balance exported as raw and food-grade sugar products to refineries in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and CARICOM. Sugar accounts for 60% of Belize's agricultural exports. BSI also owns and operates a 31.5 MW cogeneration energy power plant (Belcogen) which powers the sugar operations and exports to the national public grid, providing 15% of the country needs (70GWh), increasing Belize’s energy security. The country is heavily reliant on imported energy. BSI agricultural operations and sugar milling facilities are certified by SQF Kosher, Fair Trade, and ProTerra. The latter standard covers all the important challenges relating to large-scale production of agricultural commodities along the whole value chain. It is applicable for all agricultural commodities worldwide, providing compliance with environmental and social criteria as well as Health and Safety Regulations. It also covers key components such as protection of high conservation value areas, protection of children, and of the rights of communities, indigenous people, and small holders.

Ctenosaura Defensor (Cope, 1866)
Ctenosaura defensor (Cope, 1866). The Yucatecan Spiny-tailed Iguana, a regional endemic in the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula, is distributed in the Tabascan Plains and Marshes, Karstic Hills and Plains of Campeche, and Yucatecan Karstic Plains regions in the states of Campeche, Quintana Roo, and Yucatán (Lee, 1996; Calderón-Mandujano and Mora-Tembre, 2004), at elevations from near “sea level to 100 m” (Köhler, 2008). In the original description by Cope (1866), the type locality was given as “Yucatán,” but Smith and Taylor (1950: 352) restricted it to “Chichén Itzá, Yucatán, Mexico.” This lizard has been reported to live on trees with hollow limbs, into which they retreat when approached (Lee, 1996), and individuals also can be found in holes in limestone rocks (Köhler, 2002). Lee (1996: 204) indicated that this species lives “mainly in the xeric thorn forests of the northwestern portion of the Yucatán Peninsula, although they are also found in the tropical evergreen forests of northern Campeche.” This colorful individual was found in low thorn forest 5 km N of Sinanché, in the municipality of Sinanché, in northern coastal Yucatán. Wilson et al. (2013a) determined its EVS as 15, placing it in the lower portion of the high vulnerability category. Its conservation status has been assessed as Vulnerable by the IUCN, and as endangered (P) by SEMARNAT. ' © Javier A.

Extent, Energetics, and Productivity in Wetland Agricultural Systems, Northern Belize
ON THE BACK OF THE CROCODILE: EXTENT, ENERGETICS, AND PRODUCTIVITY IN WETLAND AGRICULTURAL SYSTEMS, NORTHERN BELIZE by: SHANE MATTHEW MONTGOMERY B.A. University of New Mexico, 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology in the College of Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Spring Term 2016 © 2016 Shane M. Montgomery ii ABSTRACT Ancient populations across the globe successfully employed wetland agricultural techniques in a variety of environmentally and climatically diverse landscapes throughout prehistory. Within the Maya Lowlands, these agricultural features figure prominently in the region comprised of northern Belize and southern Quintana Roo, an area supporting low-outflow rivers, large lagoons, and numerous bajo features. Along the banks of the Hondo and New Rivers, the Maya effectively utilized wetland agricultural practices from the Middle Preclassic to the Terminal Classic Periods (1000 B.C.—A.D. 950). A number of past archaeological projects have thoroughly examined the construction and impact of these swampland features. After four decades of study, a more precise picture has formed in relation to the roles that these ditched field systems played in the regional development of the area. However, a detailed record of the full spatial extent, combined construction costs, and potential agricultural productivity has not been attempted on a larger scale. This thesis will highlight these avenues of interest through data obtained from high- and medium-resolution satellite imagery and manipulated through geographic information systems (GIS) technology. The research explores environmental factors and topographic elements dictating the distribution of such entities, the energetic involvement required to construct and maintain the systems, and the efficiency of wetland techniques as compared to traditional milpa agriculture.
