According to the statistics from the 2014-15 fiscal year, 53.2% of its gross domestic product was composed of services. This includes tourism, which made up 10% of the GDP in 2014. On the other hand, only 15.1% of its GDP is made up by industry, which in most cases involve processing agricultural products.

USAThe main difference between the economic sectors of Nepal and the United States of America is in industry and agriculture. Unlike Nepal, the USA relies heavily on their industry, which accounted for 77.6% of their GDP in 2015. The USA is a heavily industrialized country where farming and agriculture only play a small role, making up just 1.6% of their GDP for that year. The same goes for the country's services sector.
