The economic activity of Guayabo is based on agriculture (kidney beans, onions, and sugarcane), and on livestock and dairy industry. Thanks to the energy-producing potential of the Miravalles, the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) started a geothermal project in the region, which brought employment opportunities.
