What to Focus On

  • Industry means the organised production of goods from raw materials.
  • Manufacturing uses machinery to convert raw materials into finished products.
  • Industries provide employment and support economic growth.

  • Industries depend on both geographical and non-geographical factors.
  • Raw materials often decide where an industry is located.
  • Power supply, water supply, and transport are very important.

  • Heavy industries use more capital, labour, and raw materials.
  • Light industries use less capital and produce lighter goods.
  • Agro-based, mineral-based, animal-based, and forest-based industries are grouped by raw materials.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

An industry is only a factory that makes finished goods.

Heavy industry means an industry that is dangerous or difficult, while light industry means an industry that is easy.

An agro-based industry uses minerals because it is related to farming land.
