The '''economy of Mayotte''' is based primarily on the agricultural sector, including fishing and livestock raising. The island of [[Mayotte]] is not self-sufficient and must import a large portion of its food requirements, mainly from [[Metropolitan France]]. The economy and future development of the island are heavily dependent on French financial assistance, an important supplement to GDP. Mayotte's remote location is an obstacle to the development of tourism.{{Citation needed|date=May 2010}}
