The bar chart illustrates the percentage of employment in three different sectors (Agriculture, Industry, and Services) from 1960 to 2000.
Overall, it is clear that the percentage of people employed in Agriculture declined significantly over the period, while the Services sector showed a steady increase and eventually became the largest by 2000.
In 1960, Agriculture was the dominant sector, accounting for about 63% of total employment. However, this figure gradually decreased in each decade, falling to approximately 13% in 2000. In contrast, the Services sector, which began at around 17% in 1960, rose consistently throughout the years and reached a peak of roughly 63% by the end of the period.
While the Industry sector experienced some fluctuations, it increased slightly from around 15% in 1960 to nearly 30% in 1990, before declining to 25% in 2000. Although Agriculture was the leading sector at the beginning, Services overtook it after 1990, becoming the most significant contributor to employment.
Although the industrial sector showed moderate growth until 1990, it could not keep pace with the rapid expansion of the Services sector, which dominated the employment market by 2000.
