The economy's remarkable feature is that there are no landless peasants in the
state.
The various kinds of crops cultivated in Nagaland are corn, pulses, oilseeds,
fibers, sugarcane, potatoes, tobacco, millets, and rice.
In spite of agriculture being the main occupation of the people, the state still
has to import food items from other states.
This has happened due to the fact that people followed unsustainable agricultural
practices
such as the Jhumming method which has led to the loss of fertility due to soil
erosion.
This has hampered the growth of the Economy in Nagaland.
