IELTS: The contribution of agriculture, manufacturing and business sectors to the UK economy

The chart provides the information about the proportion of agriculture, manufacturing and business and financial services in the UK economy from 1900 to 2000.

It can be clearly seen from the data that there was a downward trend in the percentage of manufacturing while the figure for business and financial went up over the period. In 1900, agriculture contributed the largest part to the UK economy with 50%, followed by manufacturing with about 40% and the remaining part was of business and financial. In 1950, agriculture was still the leader with over 50%. The figure for manufacturing fell slightly to 40% but considerably higher than that for business and financial. 25 years later, agriculture witnessed a substantial drop to only 10% whereas business and financial doubled the percentage in 1950. In 2000, business and financial was the biggest contributor to the UK economy with 35% with manufacturing coming second (15%) and the last one was agriculture.
