Solution

Weaving

Explanation:

  1. Agriculture, dairy farming, and mining all involve the extraction or production of natural resources, which are activities of the primary sector.
  2. Weaving, however, involves processing raw materials (like cotton or wool) into finished goods (cloth). This is a manufacturing activity and therefore belongs to the secondary sector, not the primary sector.
