Most of the references I found were on the economic productivity in agriculture but very limited application in manufacturing sector. I would appreciate if anyone could share the references on this.
Interesting question Econonic Productivity deals with production of agricultural yiels such as crops, cow, goat, fish etc & Manufacture System means how can processing this agricultural products for future, trading, use in today and prepare another food material.

From my perspective, manufacture for economic productivity or growth is regarding agri-processing sector, so it is better for you to change your search key words.
At the Institute where I worked in the 80s of the 20th century, we dealt with that topic. In particular, we compared productivity in private and public sector agriculture. In state agricultural organizations, he had about 5 and more times higher productivity. But when the crisis, transitions and wars came, the private sector survived and fed the people. The same was shown at this time of the pandemic. (The private sector is mostly small estates.) In the food industry, the impact of the productivity of agricultural companies was significant. The raw materials of state corporations increased the productivity of the food industry. But with the advent of the crisis, many food companies failed because they did not cooperate with small private individuals. I think that the future of the state should be well thought out in these and future very turbulent times. When a strategy for the development of agriculture and industry is adopted, then the focus can be on the issue of the impact of both productivity. Personally, I think that special attention should be paid to energy consumption, especially in the food industry. Spending is too high, and there are opportunities to reduce it.
I would add to my answer that I always start from Maslow's theory. Certainly, an increase in productivity in agriculture leads to an increase in productivity in the food industry, and lower food prices lead to higher productivity, first in the textile industry, etc. I just wanted to emphasize, based on my vast experience in learning and acting, that for me the issue of agriculture is more of a social issue than an economic one.
In my opinion, there is no difference, because you will use performance indicators, the most important of which is economic productivity in the areas of agriculture and manufacturing, but I think that calculating economic productivity will be more difficult in the case of the services sector. Productivity, in general, is the product of dividing output by input, and this is the basic principle of the topic.
