Agro-forestry-fisheries, which accounted for 16.3 percent of the economic breakdown, posted a negligible rise of 2.08 percent.
According to the General Statistics Office, the industry and construction soar was attributable to 9.69 percent and 9 percent increases obtained by industry and construction units, respectively, much higher points for both than have been recorded in recent years.
Most services, including wholesale/retail, banking, finance and insurance, climbed between 2 and 9 percent.
In contrary to the healthy growth of forestry and fisheries, agriculture inched 1.77 percent due largely to difficult weather and volatile material prices which led to a lower rice yield./.
