Andorra Agriculture and Fishing Overview
Agriculture and fishing
Andorra's most important export crop is
tobacco. For domestic use, potatoes and cereals are
grown. The country is largely dependent on imported
food. Less than two percent of the land in mountainous
Andorra is cultivable.

Comprehensive import regulations of Andorra. Covers import prohibitions and special documentation requirements for a list of prohibited items.
Tobacco is the most important crop. It must be
irrigated and cultivated on the best soils. Andorran
tobacco is usually blended with tobacco from the east
that has better quality. In recent years, Andorra has started growing
medicinal plants and aromatic herbs to find new products
that could possibly replace the not so profitable
tobacco.

Livestock breeding, especially sheep, is also
important. Timber from the forestry industry produces
export earnings. No fishing of economic significance
exists.
