Which of the following is not correct about the importance of agriculture?

  1. supply of food
  2. provision of employment
  3. provision of the raw materials for agro-based industries
  4. serving as main source of foreign exchange ✓

Explanation

Agriculture is important, but it is not the main source of foreign exchange for Nigeria. Oil and gas exports earn far more foreign currency.

Agriculture does provide food, jobs, and raw materials for industries. These are all real benefits of farming.

Countries with little oil may depend on agriculture for foreign exchange, but Nigeria relies mainly on petroleum.
