The relatively weak productivity growth in much of the developing world outside of Asia is one key factor explaining the persistence of working poverty.” Agriculture is still a significant part of the economy but services dominate greatly over industry, which is the least intense sector. Five of the countries have large agriculture sectors, accounting for over 50% of employment: Cambodia (72.2% in 2008), India (51.1% in 2010), Myanmar (62.7% in 1998), Nepal (76.1% in 2001) and Viet Nam (51.7% in 2006). Large declines in agricultural employment were experienced in Viet Nam (-13.6% from 2000-2006), China (-10.4% from 2000-2008) and Mongolia (-8.6% from 2000-2009).
