Answer: A. Many Bolivians are farmers, but the agriculture sector does not produce much in terms of GDP.
Explanation:
The agricultural sector employs 32% of people in Bolivia according to this chart which makes it the second highest employer in the country after Services.
When it comes to it's contribution to GDP however, it only contributes around 13.6% which is the lowest out of the three main contributors. This shows that although a lot of Bolivians are farmers, the agricultural sector does not contribute much to the economy.
