The line chart illustrates how the number of three products in the forest industry was changed in a European country from 1980 to 2000. Overall, there was an upward trend in all products, with paper witnessing the most dramatic increase. In addition, pulp production generally has the lowest figures from 1985 onwards.
In 1980, the number of timber recorded the highest figure at precisely 6 million tonnes, after which it rose substantially to reach a peak of about 9 million in 1985, before experiencing slight drop to below 8 million in 1990. A similar change, but to lesser extents, were seen in the figure for pulp product, which fluctuated around 4 million tonnes. Meanwhile, that of paper surged significantly, surpassing the pulp and paper in 1985 and 1990 respectively.
From 1990 onwards, the paper production went up at the same previous speed to finish at exactly 10 million tonnes, becoming the most prevalant product in the forest industry. Furthermore, that of timber fluctuated around 7.5 million on this period, while pulp products increased slightly to finish at precisely 6 millions, making it the least actractive one.
