Solution

  1. In developed countries, there is the development of industries, infrastructure, and trade.
  2. Therefore, more people are engaged in secondary, tertiary, and quaternary activities.
  3. These countries replace human labour with machinery. So agricultural activities can be carried out with a minimum number of people and can use machinery.
  4. As a result, multiple job opportunities in the non-primary sector and non-primary activities like farming can be carried out by population with the help of modern technology.
  5. Therefore, the percentage of the population engaged in agriculture is low in developed countries.
