Secondary agriculture refers to value-added activities that process raw agricultural products into consumable or industrial goods—such as milling grain into flour, producing packaged foods, or processing cotton into textiles. Financially, this sector requires investments in processing facilities, distribution networks, and quality control systems. Profitability depends on efficient supply chain management, commodity price stability, and consumer demand. It plays a key role in job creation and rural development, often attracting both domestic and foreign investment.
