The unorganized sector has emerged as the major problem of the country. Most of the informal workers comprise the agriculture sector. So, the present paper is focused on the growth of the unorganized sector in India with special emphasis on the agriculture sector. The agriculture share in gross value added is higher than other sectors. The proportion of selfemployed is higher than casual labour and regular waged workers. In rural areas, workers? livelihoods are dependent upon agriculture because when people have limited or no livelihood opportunities and for earning no formal jobs are there then to fulfil the basic requirement of the family, they are involved in jobs in the informal sector. The government has initiated many measures to formalize unorganized sectors like MGNREGA, Udyam, e-Sharam portal, Atamnirbhar package etc. It is suggested that government should organize awareness camps to inform people about formalization and its potential impact on their lifestyles. Formalization can pave the way for the shift to a green economy.. KEYWORDS :Unorganised sector, Agriculture, Labour force, Formalization, Government initiatives.
