Agriculture is the leading industry in Nepal, the livelihood for three-fourths of the population and a third of their GDP. Agriculture includes the processing of agricultural products, including pulses, jute, sugarcane, tobacco, and grain. Production of textiles and carpets has expanded recently and accounted for about 80% of foreign exchange earnings in recent years. Nepal, in the Himalayas and home to Mount Everest derives a portion of it's income from tourism.
