The producer

In reviewing the position during the last decade of producers of agricultural, fishery and forest products, it is necessary to draw a sharp distinction between those in developed and in developing countries. In most of the developed countries there has tended to be a decline not only in agriculture's share in the total population and national income but also in the absolute numbers engaged in agriculture. In the developing countries the fall in the share of agriculture in the economy as a whole has generally been much slower, and in almost all of them the agricultural population has continued to grow in absolute terms.
