Rural labor by economic sector and province, 2002 [in percent]

Source: China Statistical Yearbook, 2003, Table 12-4, p.414.
Note: Number of laborers by sector according to main economic activity.

With almost 34 million, the province of Henan reported the largest number of rural people working in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery. A large agricultural labor force was also reported from the rural areas of Sichuan and Shandong. As expected, the largest number of non-agricultural laborers in rural areas was reported from Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces.
