In the earlier days, when agriculture was the primary activity, Uthukuli was known for its famed Butter. However during the late 1990s and 2000, polluted effluents from the Textile city of Tiruppur had dealt a big, still unrecoverable blow to agriculture, dairy farming and Rice mills / Paddy Hulling in these areas and consequently the young and old of this land are now forced to seek employment opportunities outside this once scenic spot.

With the rapid expansion of nearby towns such as Tiruppur in the west, Infra structure projects such as the 4 way laning of NH 47 near Chengappalli, and overall growth in trade and commerce, this area is now transforming itself into a service support hub. Agricultural lands are now being acquired to accommodate handlooms, spinning mills, stone quarries, mining and poultry farms around this place.
