silang, like most of the towns in the province of cavite, depends on a mainly agricultural economy. the primary crops grown in the area are coconut, coffee, corn, banana, pineapple, and tree crops like mango, lansones, caimito, santol, jackfruit, guava, and avocado. fertile soils and abundant water sources make silang suitable not only for common commercial crops but also for high value and exotic crops production. most of the local farmers practice intercropping to increase land productivity and lessen soil erosion. fruit production exceeds the demand of the municipality's population, thus, supply excesses are marketed to metro manila and neighboring urban centers. a number of poultry and swine farms are also located in some rural barangays.
