Kulithalai, which has historical significance as the first constituency from which DMK patriarch and former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi was elected, is primarily agrarian.
While Kulithalai and Krishnayapuram panchayat unions are known for rice and banana cultivation, the drought-prone Thogamalai panchayat union is arid in nature and has a poorly secured irrigation system. Although agriculture is the mainstay of most of the voters here, some of them go to work in home textile manufacturing and car body units in Karur.
