primary sector showed a negative growth rate of -1.36 per cent. The driving factor for the growth of
the tertiary sector is mainly the growth in the transport, storage and communication sector which is
showing an increase to 16.78 percent in 2013-14 from 12.69 percent in 2012-13. Negative growth in
agriculture is generally because of the decrease of production in some of the cash crops like pepper,
turmeric, cashew, tea and coffee. At current prices, the tertiary sector recorded a growth rate of
17.68 percent, secondary sector 17.68 percent and primary sector with 7.5 percent in 2013-14.
