* The Amazon rainforest is one of the most important producers of natural rubber in the world. * Also, a major part of the economy of the Amazon rainforest is illegal activity such as drug dealing and wood cutting. Most of the drugs are not farmed in the Amazon region, but the area provides a good path for the drug dealers to deliver their products. * Also, tourism is also a small part of the Amazon economy. It is not nearly as important as the other things mentioned, but it still plays a part in the economy of that area.
