The chart illustrates the Southland’s main exports in 2000, 2020, and projection for 2040 in billion pounds.
Overall, there is an increment in tourism over a year, which will gradually rise by the end of 2040. The dairy trade could show a better market until 2025, then eventually decrease in 2040, whereas the meat supply will drop from 2000 to the future time period.
With regard to Scotland’s exports, international tourism will substantially rise from eight billion pounds in 2000 to ten billion pounds, which is expected to yield even more profit from the tourism market. Also, dairy products have outnumbered other products. So, it increased from seven billion pounds to ten billion pounds in 2000 and will continue to increase in the future. It will gradually reach nine and a half billion pounds. Additionally, international tourism will take the whole market in the near future.
The meat trade shows a fall in the market from 2000 until now and in the future. It could be even worse; in 2000, six billion pounds of meat ceased export, which dropped to five billion in the year 2025.
