Before the Deluge, agriculture and other primary production activities employed the majority of workers in eastern Nanzitolclatl and supported a clear majority of households. Due to the disruptions and displacements of the Deluge, this is no longer true in the Northern Division, though food production still employs the largest share of the regular workforce and likely accounts for a significant share of irregular labour activities.

{{wp|Wild Turkey (bourbon)|Wild turkeys}} are naturally native to the Mid-Atrassic States and are widely raised - mostly on a household subsistence level - for their abundant and succulent meat.

The fisheries industry has been the sector of the economy least affected by the wars of the 21st century, remaining a reliable source of employment for coastal communities that has experienced robust growth due to increased domestic demand for seafood from the growing immigrant population. Mediatrassic fisheries have been able to grow their catch to keep up with demand with the help of {{wp|technology transfer}} from the advanced Kiravian trawling industry. Marine {{wp|crustaceans}} are a particularine important export. | The fisheries industry has been the sector of the economy least affected by the wars of the 21st century, remaining a reliable source of employment for coastal communities that has experienced robust growth due to increased domestic demand for seafood from the growing immigrant population.
