Abstract
This paper examines the comparison between the agriculture and manufacturing
industry outputs and how much impact of credit, employment, land used, energy
consumption and Inflation have on their outputs. Secondary data was collected available
in various sources penetrating from year 1983—2012.Data was analyzed using Linear
Regression Model to find out correlations among variables. Results indicated that
Agriculture credit, employment, land, energy consumption and inflation have positive
correlation to Agricultural Gross Domestic Product. Manufacturing industries
employment, energy consumption and inflation have positive correlation to
Manufacturing Gross Domestic Product. Further it also revealed that average
manufacturing output was higher than average agriculture output.
Keywords: Bank credit, Scheduled banks, output, GDP.
1.0 Introduction
Bangladesh economy mostly depends on agriculture and manufacturing industries GDP which
contributed 45.9% of total GDP. Agriculture is the most important sector of Bangladesh which
contributed about 17.3 percent of the total GDP in the year 2012-2013. This sector has been
playing a vital role in socio-economic advancement and sustainable economic development
through gradual improvement of the rural economy, ensuring food security and alleviating
poverty. About 48 percent of the total labor forces of the country are engaged in agriculture
(BBS 2009). Though the contribution of the agriculture sector has decreased over time, it has an
indirect contribution to the overall growth of GDP. The growth in the service sector, particularly
the growth in wholesale and retail trade, hotel and restaurants, transport and communication
sectors are strongly supported by the agriculture sector. To uphold the role of agriculture sector
and rural areas in the overall socio-economic development of the country, the government has
been pursuing distribution programs of agriculture and rural credit through Bangladesh Krishi
Bank, Rajshahi Krishi Unnayan Bank, Nationalized Commercial Banks, specialized banks,
foreign banks, private commercial banks.
Bangladesh Manufacturing industry now is becoming the key sector of Bangladesh economy
which contributed 28.6% of total in the year 2012-2013.In the year 1981-1990 and 1991-2000
industry contribution to Bangladesh economy was 12% and 15% respectively. But it was
increased in the year 2001 to 2011 by 30% of total economy. Its contribution increases every
year. To grow this sector there is a need for financial help. Banks as the credit providers have
crucial role in the production facilities in the industrial sector. Bangladesh bank provides credits
to this sector through its schedule banks. One of the major reasons for growing this sector is
cheap labor. Especially the female women are the main source of manufacturing industry. So to
develop this sector Bangladesh bank provides more credit than any other sectors. In the
beginning, state-owned development finance institutions (DFIs) were major provider‘s of long-
Page | 2
term funds to industrial enterprises at concessional and directed interest rates. Bangladesh shilpa
bank (BSB) and Bangladesh shilpa rin sangstha (BSRS) provided long-term capital by way of
loans, equity participation, etc. for setting up of new industries as well as for balancing,
modernisation, replacement and expansion (BMRE) of existing ones, both in the public and
private sectors. Later, BSB and BSRS, BSCIC are another institution that provides medium- and
long-term loan to small industries, either directly, or through consortium of commercial banks.
2.0 Literature review:
Modern agriculture is essential for economic development. Employing modern agriculture is
possible when farmers are provided credit for purchasing modern inputs (Schultz, 1964; Zuberi,
1989). Easy and cheap credit is the quickest way for boosting agricultural production
(Abedullah, 2009). The need of credit for smooth operation of agricultural farms is widely
recognized and the need is more for small and marginal farmers (Hakim 2004). He also argues
that access of small and marginal farmers to micro credit can significantly help them to avoid
sliding down the poverty ladder. Agricultural credit has a significant effect on standard of living
(Sanoy and Safa 2005). Masawe (1994) argued that agricultural credit stimulates agricultural
production, particularly among small farmers. Many developed countries had recognized the
benefits of using modern farm technology. But application of modern farm technology to
increase agricultural output had increased financing needs of farmers (Mellor, 1966). Credit is
provided for relief of distress and for purchasing seed, fertilizer, cattle and implements (Yusuf,
1984). Use of modern technology increased demand for credit and resulted in increase in
agricultural productivity of small farmers (Saboor et al, 2009) Access to credit promoted the
adoption of yield-enhancing technologies. Governments used credit programs to promote
agricultural output, (Adams and Vogel, 1990).(Rahman et al., 2011), all scheduled financial
intermediaries, under the instruction of the Bangladesh Bank (BB), are required to offer different
short and long-term credit options to agricultural sector. According to the latest records of BB
around 63% & 37% of the enlisted banks‘ credit lending (Rahman et al., 2011) has been directed
towards helping the agro-based community develop through short-term & long term loans,
respectively. The small-scale farmers and the countryside poor are often to decide between
taking monetary assistance from either social or institutional sources. The social source may
include friends, family members, shop owners, agents etc., whereas, the institutional source has
banks, micro finance institutions and other financing organizations (Bashir et al., 2010; Okojie et
al., 2010). Faruqee (2010), in his working paper, has identified three major sources of official
loan providers in the rural context of Bangladesh. They are the ―formal, informal and the quasi-
formal‖ sources of fund providers. As cited in the paper, the friends, relatives and family fall in
the category of informal loan providers, and result to a significant 8% - 21% of rural people
seeking fund from this. Interestingly, the loan repayment record also happens to be satisfactory
from this source (Faruqee, 2010).When it comes to financing tools, there is also a variety in
options that are available to the growers. Several former researches have suggested a various mix
Page | 3
of easy credit plans that can aid the new farmers, beginners or small-scale agricultural
entrepreneurs to start-up production on their own (Saboor et al., 2009). If it is availed to the
small-scale farmers, with lesser overhead costs, it can motivate many unemployed farmers or
growers to get on board as well. Nevertheless, several studies (Badiru, 2010; CDF, 2006 as cited
in Rahman et al., 2011; Rahman, 2004; Gloy et al., 2005) have shown a common practice that,
both the availability and accessibility of finance is more in Nongovernmental Organizations-
Microfinance Institutions (NGO-MFIs) due to higher presence of branches of the same in
village-levels, in contrast to mainstream Commercial Banks, which only operate in Metropolitan
locations. General loans, program loans, housing loans etc. are few of the popular loan products
issued by financial institutions like the MFI‘s in Bangladesh‘s rural sector (Faruqee, 2010). In his
working paper, Faruqee (2010) has identified, agricultural activities, operating poultry, livestock,
sericulture, fisheries and forestry are the major deeds that are covered in the program loans
issued by the NGOs-MFIs. However, the down-fold of this system, is the sheer amount of added
interest that is being charged to the farmers, in oppose to the Commercial and Private Banks.
Dantwala (1989) estimated demand and supply of credit and its role in poverty alleviation in
India. He emphasized on supply of credit and to increase technical assistance to farmers to
increase agricultural productivity. Developing countries improved their agricultural output by
introducing modern agricultural technology such as chemical fertilizers, recommended seeds,
tractors and modern irrigation facilities etc. But modern agricultural technology was capital
intensive and hence increased demand for credit (Johnson and Cownie, 1969). Nosiru (2010)
proved in his research article on the topic ―Micro credits and Agricultural Productivity in Ogun
State, Nigeria that micro credit enabled farmers to buy the inputs they needed to increase their
agricultural productivity. However, the sum of credit obtained by the farmers in the study area
did not contribute positively to level of output. This was as a result of non-judicious utilization,
or distraction of credits obtained to other uses apart from the intended farm enterprises.
The impact of institutional credit, fertilizers, seeds, and irrigation on agricultural production was
found positive and significant (Zuberi, 1983, 1990; Sohail et al, 1991 Iqbal et al., 2001, 2003;
Waqar et al, 2008).Credit had been only a meek cause of agriculture sector growth in Nepal
(Shrestha, 992). Credit as an independent variable showed insignificant impact on production but
chemical fertilizers, high quality seeds, labor and tractors were found significant (Zuberi,1989;).
Mean input expenditures per hectare was significantly higher for the farmers who participated in
credit. Higher input expenditures were presumably associated with higher productivity growth
(Saeed et al., 1996).Chaudhry (1986) stated that combined effect of irregation, fertilizers, seeds
and pesticides etc. was positively on crop production. Strong correlation exists between the
amounts of institutional credit and the real gross domestic product agriculture sector in a given
time period (Carter 1988; Carter and Weibe 1990; Feder et al, 1990; Shrestha, 1992; Binswanger
and Khandker 1995; Pitt and Khandker 1996). Positive relationships exist between institutional
credit and productivity (Bernstein and Nadiri, 1993; Nickell and Nicholitsas, 1999; Schiantarelli
and Sembenelli, 1999; Schiantarelli and Jaramillo, 1999; Schiantarelli and Srivastava,
1999).Ahmad et al, (2006) analyzed the impact of advancing in-kind credit in the form of
Page | 4
fertilizer and seed to smallholder farmers in the Ethiopian. They found that in kind input credit of
fertilizer and seed increased crop output reasonably. Zuberi (1989) found that 70 percent of total
formal credit was used for the purchase of seed and fertilizer and concluded that most of the
increases in agricultural output could be explained by changes in the quantity and quality of seed
and fertilizer.
Selim Raihan (2012) stated that almost half of all workers in Bangladesh are employed in the
agricultural sector and labor productivity in the agricultural sector remains very low.
Hossain (2001) argues that inflation increases the amount of agriculture output. Food price
inflation has dominated the increase in overall inflation since FY 03. A positive feature of
Bangladesh‗s inflation is its low and declining volatility. The paper notes that there is conclusive
evidence internationally of a negative correlation between the level of inflation and income
growth for all but low inflation countries. High inflation distorts decisions private agents make
about investment, saving and production. High energy intensity indicates a high cost of
converting energy into GDP, while lower energy intensity indicates higher GDP per unit energy
use. The energetic efficiency declines with increasing energy input, and the result indicates that
input energy increases faster compared to energy output (Khosruzzaman, S., Asgar, M.A.,
Karim, N. and Akbar, S. (2010).)
Industrial production has been assuming a very significant role in our GDP. In the recent fiscal,
manufacturing contributed around 18% in GDP which was around 13% in the 1993-94 fiscal.
Advances by the banks seem play a great role in this enhancement of the contribution of the
industrial sector in GDP (khan, rahman, Islam 2001). Bulir (1998) shows that industrial
production is integrated with various measures of bank credits between 1976 and 1990. Almost
all the scheduled banks have shown a positive trend in financing industrial production in the
form of manufacturing advances or industrial advances (Khan, Rahman Islam 2011).Patrick
(1966) argues that financial sector contributes significantly to industrial growth in emerging
markets, while the industrial growth increases demand for financial sector services in advanced
economies.
The industrial production and inflation for each country is very closely linked in the long-run
(chaudhry, khan, boldin 2010). It is almost standard in the theoretical literature to envisage that
inflation and productivity growth are negatively related (Bardsen 2007). Recognition and strong
evidence of real wages, inflation and productivity interrelationships can help shape policy
formation for productivity enhancement, inflation control or consumption stimulation. Many
conceive that inflation and productivity growth are negatively related (Jaret and Selody, 1982;
Clark, 1982; Hondroyiannis and Papapetrou, 1997). Bitros and Panas (2001) examined the effect
of inflation on total factor productivity across Greek manufacturing industries between 1964 and
1980. They found that the acceleration of inflation from the period 1964-1972 to 1973-1980 led
Page | 5
to a significant slowdown in total factor productivity in 16 out of 20 manufacturing industries.
Tsionas (2003) also found a negative relationship between inflation and productivity for fifteen
European countries over the period 1960-1997.
Thus Most of the research focused only the impact of agricultural credit on productivity, impact
of industrial credit on productivity, impact of inflation on production. There is a little research
connected to the comparison between agriculture and industry output. Therefore this small study
was intended to fill this gap. The focus of this study is to find out the comparison between
agricultural output and industrial output in terms of credit provided by Bangladesh bank. I also
tried to examine how Agriculture GDP depends on the amount of credit provided, amount of
land used, energy consumption, inflation, employment and how industrial GDP depends on
credit, energy consumption, employment, inflation. The major objectives are too observe the
correlations among agriculture GDP, agriculture credit, used land, employment, energy
consumption and inflation and manufacturing industry GDP, credit, employment, energy
consumption and inflation.
3.0 Methodology of the study
In this study secondary data was collected available in various sources. Secondary data is
penetrating from 1983—2012. Published Data has been collected mainly from Bangladesh bank,
the annual budget of Bangladesh Government, Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics, Bangladesh
Economic review and different published reports by the government. Besides, more information
has been obtained from academic books and a variety of Journals. Financial figures have been
taken from relevant literature survey, observation method were used extensively. The study
represents all the Scheduled banks in Bangladesh. The banks are divided on the basis of
ownership pattern like nationalized commercial banks, private commercial banks, and foreign
commercial banks. There is no use of primary data in the research.
Statistical software SPSS has been very helpful in finding correlations among different
Variables, growth rate, trends, etc. Linear Regression Model is used to find out correlations
among variables. Agricultural Gross Domestic Product (AGDP) was used as the dependent
variable and agricultural credit, land, employment, energy consumption, inflation used as
independent variables. On the other hand, manufacturing industry Gross Domestic Product
(MGDP) used as the dependent variable and the manufacturing industry credit, employment,
energy consumption, Inflation used as independent variables. Numerical data have been analyzed
and interpreted with concentration and relation to the main issue. Data and information collected
from different sources were critically compared and found negligible mismatching. Theoretical
analysis along with numerical evidences has been used to substantiate the findings of the paper.

4.0 Analysis and interpretation
4.1 Comparisons between agriculture gross domestic product and agriculture credit:
From 1983 to 2012, a constant increase noticed in the credit provided by all scheduled banks in
the agriculture sector. The amount of credit was at its peak in the year 2012 when the amount
was US$ 2493.81million. From 1983 to 2005 except some positive growth, agriculture GDP has
shown negative growth during these years. But after that the overall trend is upward. The amount
of agriculture GDP was at its peak in the year 2012.
Graph-1: agriculture GDP & credit
4.2 Comparisons between manufacturing industry gross domestic product and
manufacturing industry credit:
During the year 1983 to 2012, we can notice a constant increase in the credit provided by all
scheduled banks in the manufacturing industry sector. It has shown positive trend throughout the
year. From 1983 to 1992 manufacturing GDP has shown positive trend. But after that the overall
trend is downward till 1999. The growth rate again was upward trend during the year 2000 to
2012.

4.3 Comparisons between agriculture gross domestic product and manufacturing industry
gross domestic product:
It can be seen from the graph there was no regular trend in the change in agriculture gross
domestic product and manufacturing industry gross domestic product. During the year 1983 to
1999 agriculture GDP was higher than manufacturing industry GDP. During these years average
agriculture GDP was 125.31% higher than manufacturing industry GDP. But the situation started
to change from the year 1999. From 1999 to 2012 manufacturing GDP was increased with
respect to previous year. During these years average manufacturing GDP was 83.33% higher
than agriculture GDP.

4.4 Comparisons between agriculture credit and manufacturing industry credit:
From 1983 to 1987, we noticed that credit provided by all scheduled banks in the manufacturing
industry sector was higher than the agriculture sector. After that the growth rate manufacturing
credit has been positive with massive increase. The amount of manufacturing industry credit was
at its peak in the year 2012 when the amount was US$ 8719.34 million. Throughout the
observation period the average manufacturing industry credit was US$ 3056.588 million and the
average agriculture credit was US$ 1495.163 million which was 104.43 % higher than
agriculture credit.

4.5 Comparisons between agriculture employment and manufacturing industry
employment:
From 1983 to 2012, agriculture employment has been shown overall positive trend. The amount
of agriculture employment was at its peak in the year 1999 when the amount was 50.77 million.
From 1983 to 2012 manufacturing industry employment has been shown much higher trend than
agriculture employment. Throughout the observation period the average agriculture employment
was 22.09 million and the average manufacturing industry employment was 3.62 million which
was 610.67 5 % higher than manufacturing industry employment.

7.0 Conclusions
Agriculture and Manufacturing industry are the key sector of Bangladesh economy and
contributed 45.9% of total GDP. It is no wonder that GDP of the country would be dependent
with the performance of these sectors. These sectors have been playing a vital role in socio-
economic advancement and sustainable economic development through gradual improvement of
the economy, ensuring food security and alleviating poverty. Throughout the analysis, I have
come up with the findings that the trend of Bangladeshi economy is more reliable on industrial
production to agricultural production. Average credit providing rate to the manufacturing sector
was higher than agricultural sector thus average manufacturing GDP is higher than average
agriculture GDP. The availability of employment increased output in both sectors. Since
agriculture and manufacturing output largely depends on credit, land used, employment, energy
consumption, to increase more output must be consider these factors. To robust output in these
sectors as well as our economy, government and Bangladesh bank can play vital role in terms of
financing or appropriate policy making.
