A report by Deloitte has this graphic which captures the essence of India's most worrying economic-demographic imbalance.
An oversized 58% of the workforce involved in agriculture contributes just 15% to the GDP.

Given the already large share of services sector, manufacturing may have to absorb the major share of those moving out of agriculture.
