Agriculture, forestry and fishing are all incredibly important industries for the UK economy. Agriculture alone generated £24 billion of revenue during 2015, and contributed £8.5 billion of GVA to the country's economy. The industry employs around 475,000 people directly, with another 30,000 jobs being supported as part of the supply chain. The industry is the biggest supplier to the food and drinks sector, and accounts for 0.7% of GDP.
The UK forestry industry is worth around £1 billion in annual revenue. The largest share of operations take place in Scotland, with the main activities involving the planting of new trees, logging and felling and general maintenance. In recent years the industry has seen growth thanks to the increasing demand from sawmills coupled with a general rise in construction activities. However, despite this the country still isn't able to produce all of the timber it needs domestically, and therefore continues to import much of its timber and paper.
