The Isan (or Isaan) area is mainly an agricultural area. Beside growing 1 crop of rice per year many farmers keep some cattle for producing milk for the local market. Agriculture is the main economic activity, but due to the socio-economic conditions and hot, dry climate, output lags behind that of other parts of the country. Isan is Thailand's poorest region.
