The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I would describe the agriculture and industry in a traditional economy in the following way.

In a primary economy, agriculture plays a prominent role. Indeed, it is one of the most important activities that support the economy of the country, as well as fishing, and hunting.

Agriculture in a traditional country is centered on the family, whose members work in the farm fields producing cash crops that are sold or bartered for other products. That is how these families make a living. Many times the harvest only allows the family to consume what they produce to stay alive.

Many countries and regions in Central America and India have this form of economy.
