The table provides data on the annual milk production in four countries—Netherlands, Australia, Tanzania, and Guatemala—across the years 1990, 2000, and 2010, measured in litres.
Overall, the Netherlands consistently produced the highest volume of milk over the period, while Guatemala had the lowest output. While milk production declined in Australia, the other three nations experienced overall increases.
In 1990, both the Netherlands and Australia produced over 11 million litres of milk, with Australia slightly ahead. However, by 2010, the Netherlands had overtaken Australia, rising from 11,262,000 to 11,466,000 litres, whereas Australia’s output declined steadily to 9,165,000 litres.
Tanzania’s milk production increased significantly, from just 87,000 litres in 1990 to 1,155,000 litres in 2010. Similarly, Guatemala saw steady growth, albeit on a smaller scale, rising from 26,000 litres in 1990 to 84,000 litres by 2010. Despite this growth, Guatemala remained the lowest milk producer throughout the period.
