The agricultural  sector  can  boast  of  produce  such  as  cassava,  maize,  pineapples,  and  cowpea among others.  However,  the  sector has not  seen much  growth  within the  past few  years  in  spite of several government initiatives aimed at facilitating the growth of the sector. This has basically been  caused  by  the  loss  of  existing  farmlands  to  sand  winners  as  well  as  growth  in  estate development  and  acquisition  of  land  for  private  housing  projects.  It  has  been  observed  that incomes  accrued  from  the  lease  of  lands  to  private  and  estate  developers  are  generally  higher than for agricultural purposes hence, the preference of landowners to  lease out lands for purposes other than agriculture.
 
Notwithstanding  the  above  situation,  the  Municipality  lies  in  the  catchment  area  of  the President’s Special Initiative  (PSI) for cassava for the  production  of industrial  starch.  The Roots and  Tubers  Improvement  Programme  (RTIP)  which  has  tremendous  government  support  and funding as well  as  the Export Development and Investment Fund (EDIF) that  can be accessed by non-traditional  export  crops  producers  and  exporters  alike  provide  good  opportunities  for  local
farmers. A  vibrant  market  opportunity  for these  agricultural  products  present  a  big  challenge to the  Assembly  to  focus  on creating  the  enabling  environment  as  well  as  supporting  agricultural-based enterprises to create jobs for the unemployed and reduce poverty among the people.
 
The  poultry  and  livestock  farming  exist  in  most  communities.  However,  this  sub-sector  is  in recent  times  experiencing  a  decreasing  trend  of  growth.  High  cost  of  inputs  such  as  day  old
chicks, feed, drugs  etc;  and the importation of selectively cheaper  poultry products have  resulted in high cost of production, which aggravates the situation. The fisheries sector is a potential area for economic development, especially the Weija Lake.
