Agriculture Sector Contribution to GDP in Singapore (1990-2022)

Singapore’s agriculture sector contribution to GDP is negligible, recorded at 0.3% in 1990 and diminishing to nearly 0% by 2006, where it remains. This reflects Singapore's dense urbanization and strategic focus on finance, manufacturing, and high-tech industries. With minimal land for agriculture, Singapore relies on food imports, investing instead in vertical farming and urban agriculture for food resilience.

Agriculture’s near-zero GDP share underscores Singapore’s dependence on trade and technology to meet food demands, with innovations in agri-tech aimed at enhancing food security within its constraints.
