Solution
- Among the agro-complementary industries are animal husbandry, poultry farming, sericulture, and apiculture (the culture of honey bees).
- An agro-complementary business can be conducted concurrently with agriculture.

- Furthermore, they help in efficient utilization of farm resources and can contribute to sustainable agricultural practices.
- Such diversification also reduces the risk farmers face from crop failures.
