Being the host of the biggest and best engineered Cactus Farm within the Republic of Montroig, New Baldia has imposed itself as the industrial capital of the nation. For example during the Civil War the town was one of two major military-industrial hubs. This has allowed New Baldia to become a wealthy town which is now host to emerging businesses such as the White Mountain Experience Company.

Agriculture is the second major economic sector. Potatoes are being grown in large quantities and are mainly exported to the Republic of Alfheim.

Cuisine
The New Baldian diet consists mostly of potatoes and dried kelp. The consumption of dried kelp, which is seen as the poor man's food, originated from the early days of the town around the period in which the canals were constructed. These canals were used as a place to make the kelp grow. Today Kelp is no longer a core element of the New Baldian diet and is largely consumed as a tradition and as a reminder of the modest origines of the town.

Despite its simplicity, New Baldian cuisine is famous throughout the country for its New Baldian Potatoes which New Baldians consider to be the best on the continent. Culinary Specialties from the town are regularly distributed by its citizens to compatriotes during congress sessions.
