Economy

The municipality's economy is principally centered on agriculture, and in particular dryland farming and animal husbandry. There is also small-scale tourism in the municipality, to the Pi de les Tres Branques (a monumental tree which is a popular venue for Catalan nationalist gatherings), and especially the ski station of Rasos de Peguera.

gollark: 0 dBIQ is 100, 10 dBIQ is 1000 and thus basically impossible, -10 dBIQ is 10 and vaguely possible.
gollark: I like it.
gollark: I'm not a villager. Players have a different model.
