Demographers note that as nations climb the development ladder farmers form a shrinking portion of the population while less developed countries will see agricultural communities grow for another generation. Growth rates in poorer nations run around ten percent yearly, with agriculture absorbing most new workers despite limited nonfarm opportunities. Productivity must rise before farm workers can shift to industry.
