The line graph delineates the alteration of the producing process of three forestial products, namely timber, pulp and paper. This happened in one specific European country over a 20-year period, starting in 1980.
Overall, the production of all three products was on the rise throughout the period. Notably, while paper was produced in a consistently increasing way, the others’ production fluctuated remarkably.
In detail, the amount of paper fabricated in the surveyed country saw an upward trend. The figure for this rose gradually from nearly 3 million tonnes in 1980 to sharply 10 million tonnes at the end of the period. Much as being the least-made product in the first place, paper eventually became the most-produced one in 2000.
The trends are somewhat different regarding timber and pulp production. Timber wares were manufactured the most in 1980 at 6 million tonnes, trailing behind was pulp manufacturer at 4 million tonnes. The production of timber then reached its peak in 1985 at approximately 9 million tonnes, before dropping unstoppably to a little bit over the starting point in 1995, and rose gradually to 8 million in 2000. The pulp – making process saw a similar trend, with a steady increase to 5 million tonnes in 1985, a slight decrease in 1990, after which it surged to 6 million tonnes at the end of the period.
