• Gas and Oil- The Bolivian region unswervingly to the north-west of Paraguay has South America’s 2nd biggest natural gas reserves. It does not take an intellect to calculate that Paraguay’s northern Chaco adjoining Bolivia may have same kind of resources.
• Land- This is one more thing Paraguay has in large quantity of. The land is fertile and normal irrigation is not difficult.
