Give reason in India agriculture is a primary activities in class eighth

Answer 1

Hey!

We know that there are three types of activities:-

1. Primary activity

2. Secondary activity

3. Tertiary activity

• And primary activity mainly includes the production of raw materials and basic foods and agriculture is associated with primary activity.
• Agriculture is the primary activity which includes growing of crops, fruits, vegetables, flowers and rearing of the livestock.
• Now, we know that India is a developing country and it is having large population.
• Also a large portion of India is full of highly fertile land. So, agriculture is mainly a primary activity and intensive agriculture is practiced where crops are grown on small holdings mostly for subsistence.
• The monsoon climate is highly favorable for farming.
• Two-thirds of India's population is still dependent on agriculture.
• And this is due to lack of employment as the successive government in the country has failed to provide so.
• India is not much developed like USA that with modern technology they can fulfill the needs of the poor people.
• That's why, Agriculture is a primary activity in India.
