Local craftsmen use recycled aluminum to make pots, pans, cookware, and other daily necessities by hand, and the craft has been passed down from generation to generation, making it an important pillar of the economy. The region is also an agricultural area for rice, vegetables and fruits, with several plantations scattered around the area.
