"agriculture supports industrial development in the country" how? |
| Answer» Agriculture supports industrial development in the country because:1.\xa0Agricultural growth depends on the industrial demand for agricultural commodities. Similarly, industrial growth depends on an increase in purchasing power of the agricultural sector for industrial commodities and on the supply of raw materials for processing. Many developing\xa0countries have realized the importance of the agricultural sector and its role in industrialization in their economic development.2. Industrial products are used in the sector of agriculture . For example, pesticides , irrigation pumps, etc are purchased for agricultural growth.3. Sometimes, as agricultural production efficiency improves\xa0through economic reform, an underemployment problem may occur in the\xa0agricultural sector. Hence, surplus labor from the agricultural sector may be transferred to the industrial sector.4. Development in agricultural processes helps in increasing demand of certain products or the creation of new industries. For example, the development of organic farming\xa0has created a new type of food industry that\xa0caters to organic food in urban areas.\xa0 | |
