Regarding the sector's contribution to growth, agriculture's share of the GDP in 2008 was 10% in China and 19% in India. In contrast, China's manufacturing sector makes up 47% of the country's GDP, while India's service sector makes up over 55%. Both countries' agricultural sector development has slowed during the past 20 years.
China has maintained a double-digit growth rate in the industrial sector, while India has seen a fall in that pace. In the instance of the service industry, China was able to increase its rate of development from 2008 to 2010, but India's service sector growth stalled. Manufacturing and India's expansion by service sectors are the key contributors to China's growth.
