Best answer

• Developed nations have a high proportion of people in secondary and tertiary activities because it is more productive and profitable. 

• Developing countries tend to have a higher proportion of their workforce engaged in primary activities because these are not as productive and profitable as the other sectors. 

• In India, about 64% of the population is engaged only in agriculture. The proportion of population dependent on secondary and tertiary sectors is about 13 to 20% respectively.
