Band 5+: Task 1 You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The graph gives information about coffee production in 4 differentcountries from 1990 to 2010. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features,and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

The bar chart above demonstrates how much coffee was produced over a period of 20 years, starting from 1990 in 4 different nations.

At a first glance, there were upward trends in the production of coffee in Brazil, Indonesia, and Vietnam, while that in the remaining country witnessed a downward trend over the period. It is also noticeable that Brazil was recorded to have the most enormous manufacturing in the surveyed years.

In 1990, the amount of coffee which was produced in Brazil stood at nearly 0,7 million tonnes, making it the biggest production contrasted with other nations. Furthermore, approximately 0,6 million tonnes of coffee was created in Colombia, which was 3 times as high as the statistic for Indonesia. Ultimately, Vietnam had the lowest manufacture, at under 0,2 million tonnes.

According to the chart, the amount of coffee which was produced in Brazil experienced a rapid increase from 0,7 million tonnes in 1990 to 1 million tonnes in 1995 followed by a remarkable improvement of 0,5 million tonnes and finally finishing at 1,9 million tonnes at the end of the period. Subsequently, the production of Indonesia and Vietnam stood at 0,2 and 0,1 million tonnes in half the period but after 1995, their figure underwent a gradual growth at the end of the period with 0,4 million tonnes for Indonesia and nearly 0,3 million tonnes for Vietnam. However, the production of coffee in Colombia saw a significant decrease to end the period at roughly 0,3 million tonnes.
