The pie charts provide data on the distribution of water resources to different products and the proportion of income from various agricultural goods in Australia in the year 2004. Overall, while livestock was the main consumer of water, the revenue generated through fruit made up the highest percentage. Of particular note is rice and vegetable products, which showed the least proportions in each category.
Looking at the allocation of water to different products, the percentage of water allocated to livestock stood out, accounting for a hefty 36%, distantly followed by dairy products, at 19%. The shares of fruit along with sugar, meanwhile, were less pronounced, thereby representing 11% and 10% respectively. Moreover, 15% of water resources were distributed to cotton, which was nearly four times higher than that of rice and vegetables.
In terms of income levels, it is clear that the largest proportion of revenue was generated through fruit products, constituting 44%, almost double that of dairy goods, at 24%. Whilst the share of cotton (13%) was roughly twice as high as that of income from sugar and livestock, at 7% and 6% respectively, the distinction between the shares of rice and vegetables was less marked, amounting to the lowest 1% and 5%, with the dominance of the latter.
