Evidence: Supports the 11 ranked informal employment rate among men in agriculture observations for 2024.
The rate is men in informal agricultural employment as a share of all men employed in agriculture. ILOSTAT observations can include national estimates or statistical breaks, as indicated by the source.
The ranking filters the ILOSTAT series to men employed in agriculture, the completed 2024 period and sovereign-nation observations, then orders the rates from highest to lowest.
Every row uses the same ILOSTAT informal-employment indicator, agriculture classification, sex basis, percent-of-employment unit and 2024 period.
