Answer 1

Answer: Increased food production has supported larger workforces in the manufacturing and service sectors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Countries in South Asia have seen some of the fastest growth in industrialization in the past century and a rapid rise in agricultural capacity contributed in no small part to this.

With a rapid rise in agricultural technology, farmers in South Asia were able to increase yield so substantially that the larger workforce in the manufacturing and service industry were well supported and able to push these countries forward in industrialization.
