Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Value Added (% of GDP)

Agriculture, forestry and fishing value added (% of GDP)·Neither end is better — this is a shape, not a score·Published by World Bank Group

We hold 51 editions of this indicator, from 1975 to 2025 — 8,112 rows in total, and 158 countries in the newest.

51 reference years (1975–2025), covering 84 to 200 countries, pulled from the World Bank’s indicator API (NV.AGR.TOTL.ZS). How much of a country’s output comes from farming, forestry and fishing. ⚠ NEITHER END IS BETTER, which is why this indicator carries no good/bad colouring and does not feed its topics’ rankings. The development-economics reading of a high share — “not yet industrialised” — is an opinion, and it is wrong about the countries that farm because they are good at it. A low share is equally the signature of a rich diversified economy and of a city-state with no farmland: Singapore and Aruba read 0.0 here. ⚠ 42 country-years the Bank records as exactly 0 (Brazil and Venezuela, 21 years each) are treated as missing and not imported; the 0.0 values that remain are real figures rounded to one decimal. ⚠ These are not 51 published reports — see `restatedByReport`. ⚠ No rank is published. A POSITION is derived here (2026-09-10) by ordering the score LARGEST FIRST, and it is a SIZE ORDER rather than a league table: this measure has no better end, so position 1 names the country with the biggest figure and says nothing about how that country is doing. The change arrows stay grey for the same reason, and the indicator is still left out of the Country Index.
