The climate and terrain of Porfíria are quite similar to [[Agriculture in Great Kirav|that of Great Kirav]], and colonists have had great success cultivating Kiravian staple crops such as potato, ''dralm'', barley, {{wp|buckwheat|Coscivian cuckwheat}} and oats. Crops native to Cusinaut, such as ''sallaw'' and clubfruit, are also cultivated, both by the indigenous population and on settler-owned land. Weather conditions are optimal for the growth of {{wp|hops}}, which are produced to supply the Porfírian brewing industry, as well as for export. Livestock raising is an important activity, focused on [[sheep]] and {{wp|guanacos|''tinav'' camelids}} introduced from Great Kirav, as well as {{wp|cattle}}, which are kept mainly for {{wp|dairy}} production. | The climate and terrain of Porfíria are quite similar to [[Agriculture in Great Kirav|that of Great Kirav]], and colonists have had great success cultivating Kiravian staple crops such as potato, ''dralm'', barley, {{wp|buckwheat|Coscivian cuckwheat}} and oats.

In Avenirskara specifically, most settler-held agricultural land is family-owned and organised into parcels ranging from medium-sized estates to small, single-family homesteads, as a result of the {{wp|distributist}} land tenure policies adopted during colonisation and their continuation in the colony's own property laws. Most native-held agricultural land is owned collectively, either by tribes and clans according to traditional {{wp|customary law}} or by the governments of the autonomous ''Mannakidan'' territories. {{wp|Forestry}} is also an important industry, and Porfíria is a rising producer of softwood timber, pine resins, and paper products. | In Avenirskara specifically, most settler-held agricultural land is family-owned and organised into parcels ranging from medium-sized estates to small, single-family homesteads, as a result of the {{wp|distributist}} land tenure policies adopted during colonisation and their continuation in the colony's own property laws.
