Understanding GDP from Agriculture — a simple guide

What it measures

Value added by agriculture, forestry and fishing as a share of GDP.

How it is calculated

Value added by farming, forestry and fishing ÷ GDP × 100.

Simple example

A share of 16% means about one-sixth of the economy’s output comes from agriculture.

▲ When it is high or rising

A high share means the economy depends more on monsoon, weather and crop prices.

▼ When it is low or falling

A low share is typical of industrialised, service-based economies.

Why it matters for the economy and markets

The share indicates the economy’s structure; it typically falls as countries develop.

How to read it

A high share means output and incomes are more exposed to weather and commodity prices.
