Q14 of 47 Page 6

Do agriculture and industries move hand-in-hand? How?

Yes, agriculture and industries move hand-in-hand and complement each other. Both of them increase demand for each other’s goods and also serve as a market for each other.

For example, agro-based industries like sugar and textiles are dependent for raw materials on agriculture. Tools and implements like PVC pipes, fertilizers, pesticides, insecticides, etc. required for cultivation of a field are manufactured by industries. These products help in increasing the productivity of farmers.


Thus, it can be said that both are dependent on each other for increasing their efficiency.
