Abstract
In the current study, we have analyzed the contribution of agricultural sub-sectors growth rate to the agriculture GDP growth rate of Pakistan by using secondary data from 2001 to 2015. Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method was applied to estimate the model parameter. For this purpose the study considered a dependent variable of agriculture GDP growth rate and several independents variables include major, minor crops, livestock, fishery and forestry. The regression analysis of the data showed a positive and significant contribution in agriculture GDP growth rate. However, fishery and forestry sub-sectors contribute growth rates were considered poor as compared with other sub-sectors could be due to less attention paid from the government. Our study suggests that Government of Pakistan should consider the importance of both agricultural sub-sectors to increase there’s contribution growth rate towards agriculture GDP growth rate in Pakistan.
