We compute aggregate productivity of manufacturing industries by urban, rural less sparse and rural sparse locations in … manufacturing industries using FAME data over the period 1994-2001. We analyse the productivity differentials across location … categories by decomposing them into industry productivity effect and industry composition effect. Our analysis indicates that at …
