South Holland

a province in the Netherlands on the shore of the North Sea. Area, 2,800 sq km. Population, 3 million (1970). Administrative center, The Hague.

The territory of South Holland lies below sea level and is intersected by branches of the Maas and Rhine rivers and a thick network of canals. South Holland is first in national production (26.6 percent in 1967). Particularly developed are the oil-refining and petrochemical industries, shipbuilding, and machine building. The region’s major industrial centers are The Hague, Rotterdam (one of the largest ports in the world), Schiedam, Dordrecht, Delft, and Leiden. There is also intensive agriculture in South Holland; it provides 20.4 percent of the nation’s agricultural output. Dairy farming, fruit and vegetable growing (the latter largely in hothouses concentrated between The Hague and Hoek Van Holland), and flower growing (mainly around Hillegam and Lisse), all of which provide products for export, are important.
