All primary occupations are symbolic of simple, traditional and primitive economic and social structure. The distribution of people engaged in primary occupations across the globe, is unequal. In developed countries, less than 5 per cent of population is engaged in primary activities. While in developing countries, these activities provide employment to a large part of labour force. Primary activities are very important because these provide food to human beings and raw material to industries. Right from the existence of man, primary activities have nurtured man for more than 95% time period.
