State with reasons whether you agree or disagree with the following statement:Agriculture and industry are interdependent or complementary.

Answer»

Yes, I do agree with the statement. 

  • In a country like India, there are many agro-based industries like sugar, textile, oil, etc. 
  • These industries depend on agriculture for their raw materials. 
  • Hence, agriculture supports industries. 
  • Industries also support agriculture in the sense that new methods of agriculture require more use of pump sets, fertilizers, pesticides, agricultural implements, etc. 
  • All these are produced and supplied by the industrial sector. 
  • With the help of these inputs, farmers produce more output. 
  • Hence, the statement agriculture and industry are interdependent is a true statement.
