13. Main sectors of
industry
The Bangladeshi economy relies on its
enormous human resources, rich
agricultural soils and abundant water
resources. Agriculture represented
12.7% of GDP and employed 38% of the
total workforce in 2020 (World Bank,
2021). Main crops include rice, tea, jute,
wheat, sugarcane, tobacco, spices, and
fruits. Bangladesh is the world's fourth
biggest rice producer, although
shortages caused by natural disasters
occasionally force the country to
import rice.

16. FINDINGS
The banking sector are facing liquidity pressure as deposit growth and loan recovery
also declines.
The official unemployment rate are increased, but this more than doubles for the youth
unemployment rate.
Employment are increasing in service sector more than agriculture sector. On the other
hand more value added in this sector by % of GDP.
In Foreign Trade import of goods and services are decrease and export of goods and
services are increase.
We are losing our manpower in industrial sector.
Gross Domestic Products (GDP) Annual Development Program (ADP), Fiscal Policy,
and Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) are profoundly hampered by the COVID-19
pandemic.
17. A huge number of the population is now
unemployed and increasing depression among
this unemployed. It is still unknown when the
devastating manner of Covid-19 will end, so all
arms of government and other agencies should
take effective policies, initiatives, coordination
and awareness buildup to avert the severity of
the crises and be proactive in soothing
possible negative impacts in near future.
The study suggested that as Covid-19 still
surfacing all over the world so some steps
should be ensured by the government
agencies of Bangladesh to mitigate possible
threats for the economy.
