Dual economy (sometimes also known as a 'dualistic economy') is the existence of two separate economic systems within one region; common in the less developed countries, where one system is geared to local needs and another to the global export market.

For example, a modern plantation or other commercial agricultural entity operating in the midst of traditional cropping systems.
