Most of the land within Perquimans County is devoted to agricultural activities.  Currently, the North Carolina Northeast Commission is giving top priority to the establishment of a world class collaboration within the region for the commercialization of plant made products—bio fuels, bio mass and bio crops.  Perquimans County is in an ideal position to take maximum advantage of this evolving network of university research, business development and agriculture resources to foster plant made development and a new economic niche for the County.
