a The relative importance of manufacturing is based on UNIDO’s Competitive Industrial Performance Index, which combines four main dimensions<br />

of industrial competitiveness: industrial capacity, manufactured export capacity, industrialization intensity and export quality.<br />

b The relative importance of agriculture is calculated based on simple averages of standardized values of the following variables: agricultural value<br />

added per capita, agricultural exports per capita, share of agricultural value added in total GDP, and share of agricultural exports in total exports.<br />

Note: Various countries are not included in the table due to missing data.<br />
