The triple line chart provides information about the amount of exported wheat by three regions, namely Australia, Canada, and the European Community, over a period of 5 years, starting from 1985.
Overall, what stands out from the line graph is that there was an upward trend in the quantity of wheat shipped overseas from the European Community, while a reverse trend was seen in the figures for Australia during the research period. In contrast, Canada experienced a fluctuation throughout the same timeframe. Moreover, the EU Community had become a leading wheat exporter among these regions in the end.
It is apparent from the chart that in the initial year, Canada was the most prevalent in exporting wheat, commencing at just under 20 million tons. In the following 3 years, those shipped by Canada began to decrease insignificantly to approximately 17 million tons in 1986 before surging and reaching a peak of 25 million tons in 1988. From 1988 onward, while the data encountered a plummet and reached an all-time low of underneath 15 million tons in 1989, it then witnessed an upsurge to reach nearly 20 million tons of wheat exported, which was the same level as the first year by the end of the analysis phase.
On the contrary, the amount of wheat exported by Australia and the EU Community was much lower than the previous region initially, with their respective figures being roughly 15 and 17 million tons. The next 3 years saw some radical changes in the quantity of wheat shipments by two countries. To clarify, if the European Community underwent a negligible reduction in 1986 and then remained stable at about 15 million tons of wheat shipped until 1988, the figure for Australia saw a reverse trend of minimal acceleration in 1986 before gradually declining over the same period. In the last 2-year period, while the EU Community had enjoyed a quick recovery to reach a high of just over 20 million tons of wheat shipments overseas in 1990, the data for Australia had continuously fallen to a low point of around 10 million tons by the end.
