- 3 percent in Finance & Real Estate,
- 6 percent increase in Transport and Trade,
- 2 percent in Manufacturing sector,
- 0 percent in Construction
- 3 percent increase in Electricity, Gas & Water Supply.

- Foodgrains production, which was 15.81 lakh MT during 2017-18 increased to 16.92 lakh MT during 2018-19 and is targeted at 16.36 lakh MT in 2019-20.

The share of industries has increased from 1.1 in 1950-51 to 29.8 in 2018-19.
The share of services sectors has increased from 5.9 percent in 1950-51 to 44.0 percent in 201819.
NOTE : The declining share of agriculture sector do not, however, affect the importance of this sector in the State economy as the growth in primary sector of the State economy is still determined by the trend in agriculture and horticulture production. It is one of the major contributors to the total domestic product and has overall impact on other sectors via input linkages, employment, trade and transportation etc. Due to lack of irrigation facilities, our agricultural production to a large extent still depends on timely rainfall and weather conditions. High priority has been accorded to this sector by the Government.
