Give a definition of the PRIMARY economic sector AND give two examples of kinds of jobs in the PRIMARY economic sector
Answers
Answer:
The primary sector of the economy is the sector of an economy making direct use of natural resources. This includes agriculture, forestry and fishing, mining, and extraction of oil and gas. The primary sector is usually most important in less developed countries, and typically less important in industrial countries.
Activities associated with primary economic activity include agriculture (both subsistence and commercial), mining, forestry, grazing, hunting and gathering, fishing, and quarrying.
Primary jobs involve getting raw materials from the natural environment e.g. Mining, farming and fishing. Secondary jobs involve making things (manufacturing) e.g. making cars and steel. Tertiary jobs involve providing a service e.g. teaching and nursing.
