According to the CIA, the GDP of Afghanistan was composed of: 24% of agriculture (employing 78,6% of the workforce), 21% of industry (employing 5,7% of the workforce), 55% of services (employing 15,7% of the workforce). According to the World Bank, the industrial employment relies essentially on domestic raw materials, mainly cotton, wool, hides and skins, and fruits. Substantial constraints to rapid development of the sector exist, most of which are linked to the country's income level and to its landlocked situation and mountainous terrain.
