What are Industries ?

Industry refers to an economic activity that is concerned with production of goods, extraction of minerals or the provision of services. Thus we have Iron and steel Industries, coalmining industry and tourism industry.

Classification of Industries

On the basis of Raw Materials

1) Agro-Based Industries:- These consist of plant and animal based products. For example food processing, vegetable oil & etc.

2)Mineral based Industries :- These are the primary industries that use mineral ores as their raw materials. The products of these industries feed other industries.

3) Marine Based Industries:-  These industries use products from the sca and oceans as raw materials. For example sea foods and fish oil.

4) Forest based Industries :- These industries utilise forest produce as raw materials.

On the basis of Size

Small scale Industries	Large scale Industries
These industries consist of less amount of capital and technology.	These industries have tremendous capital and investment , enormous machines
It requires semi-skilled labours.	It requires highly skilled labours

On basis of Ownership

->Private sector: Owned and operated by individuals/group of individuals. 

->Public sector: Owned and operated by the government. Ex: Hindustan Aeronautics Limited

->Joint sector: Owned by state individuals/group of state individuals.Ex: Maruti Udyog.

->Cooperative sector: Owned and operated by producers of raw materials and workers. Ex: Amul, Sudha Dairy.

Which of the following best describes an agro-based industry?
A. Industries depending on agricultural products E.g. plant and animal products.
B. Industries depending on things like Cement, iron, steel, etc.
C. Industries that use products from the sea and oceans as raw materials.
D. Industries that depend upon the primary products from forests for their row materials

1. Only A and B
2. Only A, B, and D
3. Only A
4. All of them

To which category of industry (based on raw materials) does Iron made from iron belongs?

1. Agro-based
2. Marine based
3. Mineral-based
4. Forest-based

Industrial System

An industrial system consists of inputs, processes and outputs.

Inputs They consist of the raw-materials. For example, cotton, human labour, cost of land & Etc.

Processing It consists of a wide range of activities that change the raw material into finished products. For example, ginning, spinning, weaving & etc.

Outputs Output is the finished product and the income obtained from it.

Industrial Regions

Industrial regions emerge when a number of Industries locate close to each other and share the benefits of their closeness.

Major industrial regions of the WORLD are :-

Eastern North America, Western & Central Europe , Eastern Europe

& Eastern Asia 

India has several industrial regions like  :-

Mumbai , Pune cluster, Banglore- Tamil Nadu region& more..

Pune cluster

Banglore- Tamil Nadu region

And many more

Which of them is not the main factor which influence the location of an industry?

1. Land
2. capital
3. Market
4. Climate

In the light of various factors that influence industrial location, some industries have a tendency to grow close to each other. Name such areas.

1. Industrial Structures
2. Industrial Regions
3. Industrial Systems

Industrial Disaster

In industries, accidents occur due to technical failure or irresponsible handling hazard material .
