The majority of the population of Pak Chong district as well as Pak Chong town are employed in agriculture, with maize being the main produce, followed by cassava. Cattle rearing forms an important industry in the district, which is one of the country's top dairy producers, along with neighbouring Muak Lek. Several factories in diverse industries including sack-weaving, electronics, rock-crushing and livestock feed production serve
Tourism is also a large contributor to the economy, with tourists coming to visit [[Khao Yai National Park]] as well as other attractions in the wider '''Khao Yai area''' to the south of the district.
