With a highly fertile land, the district mainly produces paddy, wheat and maize. Being a natural reserve of sand, Kiul River helps in generating revenue for the District.

Being part of the erstwhile Pal Dynasty, Lakhisarai is popular among tourists for its religious significance. The place has many famous temples, some of which even dates back to its first ruler. Some of the district's special appeals include:
* Ashokdham
* Durga Asthan
* Kabaiya
* Nongarh
* Barahiya
* Shringirishi
* Abhinath Asthan
* Bhagwati Asthan
As a predominantly agriculture-friendly district, Lakhisarai is doing its best to attain organized advancement and development.
