This is an example of the secondary or industrial sector being dependent on the primary. This is an example of a primary sector that is dependent on a secondary sector.
Farmers buy many goods, such as tractors, pump sets, electricity, pesticides, and fertilizers. Imagine what would happen if the price of fertilisers or pump sets went up. The cost of cultivation for the farmers will rise, and their profits will be reduced.	This is an example of the primary sector, i.e., agriculture, being dependent on the secondary sector, i.e., industry.
People working in the industrial and service sectors need food. Imagine what would happen if there was a strike by transporters and lorries refused to take vegetables, milk, etc. from rural areas. Food will become scarce in urban areas, and farmers will be unable to sell their products.	This is an example of the primary sector being dependent on the tertiary sector
