Well I note that you did not specify legal or illegal so I will give a balanced list. Also, you said "in Jamaica" but did not specify if they were for export or local consumption because that list would be different.
Also, there is no point in listing things like "agriculture" or "manufacturing" - EVERY country has these, I will instead SPECIFY.
Legal (foreign exchange/export oriented)
- Tourism
- Sugar cane cultivation
- Banana cultivation
- Bauxite mining
- Ackee cultivation
Legal (local consumption)
- Banking
- Cement manufacturing
- Cellular communications
- Cable television
- Import of US goods
Illegal (pretty much to generate foreign exchange but a mix)
- Ganja (marijuana) cultivation
- Cocaine transshipment from Colombia
- Lottery scams
- Fake US passports, Visas, etc.
- Prostitution
