The line chart illustrates the amount of three wood products: timber, pulp and paper produced in a European nation from 1980 to 2000.
Overall, there was an upward trend in the production of all three products. In addition, it is notable that the figure for paper went from the lowest to the highest over the examined years.
Looking at the details, the yield of papermaking started at 3 million tonnes in 1980, and then surged to 7 million tonnes in 1990. At the same time, the figure for timber rose by 3 million tonnes to reach 9 million tonnes in the first 5-year of the period, then gradually declined to 8 million tonnes in 1990. Similar patterns can be observed in pulp production but to a lesser extent, which slightly improved from 4 million tonnes in 1980 to 5 million tonnes in 1985, after which it dipped to 4.5 million tonnes in 1990.
From 1990 to 2000, the figure for timber reduced slowly to hit the lowest point of 6.5 million tonnes in 1995, before recovering and ending the period at 7.5 million tonnes. On the other hand, pulp and paper production witnessed a continual uplift, peaking at 6 million tonnes and 10 million tonnes in the final year, respectively.
