The village's economy is dominated by agriculture, with its main crops being rice, corn and beans. In addition to several streams, it is also home to the Shuanggou dam and weir, Shiai irrigation station, and some artesian irrigation ditches.  

In 2001, a comprehensive improvement project began in the village, including the construction of Weimin Bridge, cement road repairs, construction of sewage pipe networks and garbage pools, and courtyard renovation.
