On the territory of Bor, there are relatively favorable conditions for growing fruit, primarily kernel and bony. The dominant fruit species are plum and then apple. Most of the products are used for their own consumption or for processing and a smaller part is sold at a green market in Bor. There are also relatively favorable conditions for viticulture, but very small varieties are cultivated, so with insufficient knowledge of production technology and lack of quality equipment, even the average quality of wine produced (most grapes are processed into wine for their own use) enviable level.
The city of Bor has good geographical and climatic conditions for the development of livestock. It has numerous meadows and pastures and arable land for the production of forage and arable crops, which are used for livestock feed. Smaller producers find it difficult to market their products to dairy and slaughterhouse industries, so there is a need for association.
In one part of the territory of the town of Bor (Gornjane, Tanda, Luka, Zlot, part of Bu je, part of arbanovac and part of Metovnica) there are suitable conditions for organic production. There are currently no certified organic farmers. Some progress has been made in beekeeping associations, which often hold lectures for their members, organize sales exhibitions of their products, and whose members have recently been packing honey in high quality and recognizable packaging of the Association of Beekeeping Organizations of Serbia.
