Summary
La Troncal is the largest city in Cañar Province, Ecuador, and serves as the canton's seat. Originally a sparsely populated farming area, it experienced growth from the 1950s due to migration from Azuay and Cañar provinces. The Aztra sugar mill's development in the 1990s attracted further migrants from Manabí.
