Countries with the largest GDP share

indicate a weak primary sector and a
huge share in the service industry. In
developing countries, however,
agriculture is the largest contributor to
the GDP. Their focus, in terms of
economic growth, should be to make
their presence felt more effectively in
the service industry.
