The chart illustrates information about the main exports of Southland in 2000, 20.., and the prediction for 2025. The three categories shown are international tourism, dairy products, and meat products.
Looking from an overall perspective, it is similar to observe that international tourism and dairy products show a rising trend across the period, while meat products gradually declines. Each of these export categories experiences different changes over time.
With respect to dairy products, they started below £8 billion in 2000, then became the top export in 20.., reaching £10 billion. A small drop is predicted for 2025, but it will still stay at a high level. As regards international tourism, it began just under £8 billion and subsequently increased. In 2025, it is forecast to become the highest export, slightly under £10 billion.
By contrast, meat products started at approximately £6 billion and showed a small decline in 20… A further decrease is expected by 2025, when it will fall to under £5 billion, making it the least valuable of the three exports.
