The flag of Río Negro is composed of four colors: celestial blue, yellow, 
white and a green, in a rectangle panel arranged as follows:
- the celestial 
blue equilateral triangle covers 50% of the flag's area. Its color alludes to 
the sky and the rivers' water, reflecting purity and transparency. It recalls 
that the territory of Río Negro is rich in rivers and cascades, forming one of 
the world's main wet areas, where rain is an eternal company. Its shape 
highlights the need to carry on the way.
- yellow covers 40% of the flag's 
upper part. It alludes to all resources of the territory, and specifically, to 
the historical production of naranjilla [Solanum quitoense Lam.] and 
sugar cane.
- white covers 20% of the flag. It symbolizes the ways, 
specifically through rivers and cascades. The vertex of the triangle reaches its 
center to highlight the aspiration to progress through purity.
- green covers 
40% of the lower part of the flag. Its symbolizes the green fields in the 
mountains, a fortress of vegetation and woods that subliminally alludes to water 
and rain.
