There is little economy in Gambia. The economy relies on the agricultural side, majorly on the export of peanuts and the re-exporting of imported foreign goods to other African nations. Around 75% of the population relies on the cultivation of rice, millet, sorghum, corn, and cassava. Farming is also a common activity with the breeding of cattle, sheep and goats. The fishing industry is one of the main industrial activities in the country. The manufacturing sector is limited: soap, soft drinks, and clothing.
