Lesothos GDP (PPP) is projected at $7.1 billion in 2025. Lesothos economy relies on agriculture, textiles, and remittances, with water exports to South Africa via the Lesotho Highlands Water Project as a key contributor. The PPP adjustment boosts GDP due to a low cost of living. Poverty, unemployment, and HIV/AIDS prevalence hinder growth, while reliance on South Africa poses risks. Lesotho aims to diversify into tourism and renewable energy, but limited infrastructure and landlocked geography constrain economic development. See detailed Lesotho purchasing power parity data.
