Agriculture (corn, vegetables), especially livestock farming, is of particular importance.

In April 2012, Minister of Agriculture Assunção Cristas announced the promotion of cattle breeders. With the Parque Logístico e Industrial de Arazede , a larger commercial area is also being planned.

Until the suspension of the Ramal da Figueira da Foz in 2009, the municipality was connected to the railway network with the Arazede train station and the Bebedouro stop. The completion of the renovation work and the reopening of the line have been postponed until further notice in view of the country's financial crisis.
