KN: Primaryy Sector employmnt falls in developed countries mainly due to mechanisation and higher productivity, fewer workers make the same output..

APP: for e.g. farms use combine harvesters so one worker can do what ten used to do.

AN: The skilled labour of farmers is not required due to more efficient machinery. Technology and better equipment reduce jobs even as output grows, shifting workers to other sectors.

[Knowledge]:One reason for the decline of primary sector employment is increased use of machinery and technology.[Application]:For instance, in developed countries, modern farming equipment such as harvesters can replace the work of many farm labourers.[Analysis]:This means fewer workers are needed in agriculture, reducing employment in the primary sector and causing people to move towards jobs in manufacturing or services.

KN: Primary sector employment has fallen in developed countries mainly because of advancements in technology and machinery that replace human labour.
APP: E.g modern farms now use machines like harvesters and tractors to do work that once required many workers.
AN: As a result, businesses can produce more with fewer people, so many workers move to secondary or tertiary sector for jobs instead.

kn] because of advancement and technology there
ap] for example they use machines for mining fishing and agriculture
an] this reduce the demand of labour there as machines are the alternative workers there to work decreasing the workers demand for it

[KN] One reason why fewer people work in the primary sector in developed countries is because of machines replacing human labour
[APP] For example, farms that grow wheat used for making bread now use big machines to plant, water, and harvest crops instead of hiring lots of workers to do it by hand.
[AN] This means fewer people are needed on farms since machines can do the work faster, cheaperand for longer hours. this has caused a big drop in primary sector jobs.
