The given graph illustrates the average fish and meat consumption in a European country between 1979 and 2004.
Overall, fish was a source of meat that had not been favored by residents in that country. While beef and lamb witnessed a downward trend, chicken was the only kind of meat which experienced an upward trend over the given period.
In 1979, beef took the highest point with more than 200 grams of meat per head weekly. Followed by the proportion of lamb with exactly 150 grams on average. Chicken took the third place with less than 150 grams per person per week. Fish reached the lowest point with just roughly 60 grams per head in a week.
Throughout the period, chicken took first place from 1989 until 2004 with a significant soar of 100 grams from below 150 grams in 1979 to around 250 grams weekly for a person. In contrast, beef and lamb shared the same tendency by a dramatic decrease which made them drop to only around 100 grams and roughly 50 grams in 2004, respectively.
