Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Value Added per Worker

35 years, 1991–2025 · 151 countries

This is how much a country's farms, forests and fisheries produce for each person working in them, in constant 2015 dollars — agricultural labour productivity. It is the gap between farm and city incomes in one number, and one of the clearest measures of how far a country's agriculture has modernised.

This site holds every year from 1991 to 2025, read from World Bank Group’s own data and stored exactly as published.
