Agribusiness (agriculture and cattle-raising), which grew by 40% or 3.6% per year, remains the most dynamic sector. It maintains a "high" rating on the Human Development Index, but also has a medium GINI Coefficient, at 41.2. Economic inequality has become a problem, although it has been steadily decreasing over the last decade. The average income in a typical urbanized area of Eldmark was, according to a report by the OAN, €44,290, while the average income in rural areas mere kilometers away was only €17,700.

Eldmark has historically had an economy that, while more stable, lagged behind some of its peers in the continent. The economy of Eldmark suffered greatly during to the Great Collapse, and was equally wrecked by the Ardesian invasion that followed. Afterwards, Eldmark experienced a quick recovery thanks to foreign assistance, and rapidly grew in the middle to latter half of the 20th century. In 1979, the country entered a recession amid a political corruption scandal and nationwide protests to civil rights abuses suffered at the hands of the Hellmann Administration. The 1980s was marked as a miraculous recovery period, with the succeeding government prioritizing the creation of a robust welfare program and economic regulation package. During the 20 years of AFP governance (Under Haraldsen, Lindbergh, and Essen, respectively), Eldmark saw growth in real GDP averaging at 8%. In 2001, the NP wrestled back parliamentary power, running on Orjan Rehn's economic platform "Ny NP," which sought to continue much of the welfare programs of the AFP.
