53,060 agricultural rural residents on 112 km2 (excluding territorial waters).

Udung Uko LGA has large crude oil and salt reserves and several oil mining companies. Udung Uko LGA’s rivers and streams are rich in seafood, hence fishing is important. Udung Uko LGA residents also cultivate, make boats, and carve wood.
It features a beach market at Esuk Usung where fisherman from Ilaje, Cameroon, Ghana, and indigenes show their products for sale, as well as other water ways and fronts such Esuk Okong, Esuk Edet Edem, and Atakibang where fine sand and gravels are harvested.
