    The addition of capital delays how quickly labor's returns become diminishing

    Explanation:

    It is widely known that when outputs such as agricultural produce increases, the number of employment in form of labor and other skilled workers increases. In addition, a decrease in output will lead to reduction in employment. However, in the industrialization early stage, increase in output lead to decrease in employment because the addition of capital slows down the rate of labor's returns.
