Por qué el sector primario ha sido el más descuidado en el país, sustente su respuesta con basamentos históricos como el éxodo r
vova2212 [387]
El sector primario de la economía es el sector de una economía que hace uso directo de los recursos naturales. Esto incluye agricultura, silvicultura, pesca y minería. En cambio, el sector secundario produce bienes manufacturados y el sector terciario presta servicios. El sector primario suele ser más importante en los países menos desarrollados y, por lo general, menos importante en los países industrializados. Normalmente se consideran las industrias manufactureras que agrupan, empaquetan, envasan, depuran o procesan las materias primas cercanas a los productores primarios [¿quién?] Parte de este sector, especialmente si la materia prima es inadecuada para la venta o difícil de transportar largas distancias. La industria primaria es un sector más grande en los países en desarrollo; Por ejemplo, la cría de animales es más común en África que en Japón. La minería en el sur de Gales del siglo XIX proporciona un estudio de caso de cómo una economía puede llegar a confiar en una forma de actividad. Canadá es inusual entre los países desarrollados en la importancia de su sector primario, siendo las industrias madereras y petroleras dos de las más importantes de Canadá. Sin embargo, en los últimos años, el número de intercambios de terminales ha reducido considerablemente la industria primaria de Canadá, haciendo que los canadienses dependan más de la industria cuaternaria.
