Wheat and oats grow on the plains, and the hilly district on the east bank of the Saône is a centre of the Burgundy wine trade. There is much industry around the coal basins of Autun and Montceau-les-Mines, and ironworks at Le Creusot. Cattle and poultry are bred in many parts. The administrative centre is Mâcon.
