Agriculture Sector Contribution to GDP in United States (1997-2021)

The agriculture sector in the United States has maintained a minimal GDP share, around 1%, from 1997 to 2021, reflecting the country’s diverse economy. This stability highlights the productivity of U.S. agriculture, which supplies domestic and global markets efficiently. Agriculture’s low GDP share also reflects the dominance of services and technology sectors.

Despite its small share, agriculture remains essential for the U.S. economy, especially for exports. The sector’s stability illustrates its efficiency and crucial role in meeting domestic and international food demands.
