Elsewhere in the province, very low incomes can be earned from food, betel nut, animal skins, crocodiles and rubber. There is very little potential agricultural land. Royalties, wages and compensation from the Ok Tedi Mine also provide incomes in the province. Roads in the north connect Kiunga, Tabubil, the Ok Tedi Mine, Nomad and Lake Murray.
