capital-intensive production

capital-intensive production

Form of production where a relatively high amount of capital is used in relation to labour or other factors of production. Production in primary and secondary industrial sectors is becoming increasingly capital-intensive. As more and more capital is used, labour productivity increases but at the same time employment in these industries falls.
