Dispunand de terenuri agricole si silvice ce depasesc doua treimi din suprafata totala a comunei, acestea sunt pricipalii sustinatori ai economiei comunei. Prin introducerea de rase de animale performante, in sectorul zootehnic s-a inregistrat in ultimii ani o usoara ameliorare.
Potentialul turistic al comunei este sustinut atat de elemente ale fondului turistic natural, precum formele de relief exocarstic si endocarstic, cat si prin elemente de origine antropica. Biserica de lemn "Sfantul Dumitru" din satul Lozna, datata din anul 1813, este o bijuterie a arhitecturii traditionale romanesti inclusa in patrimoniul cultural national.
