The given pie charts illustrate proportion of world forest among five different regions.
Looking from an overall perspective, it can be clearly seen that, although highest percentage of global forest possessed Africa, it is important to note, still the least popular in timber production, while North America was in leading position in both pie charts based on available statistical data.
The proportion of world forest was 25% in North America then increased gradually reaching the maximum timber production (30%). In comparison, Africa occupied roughly the highest percent among five regions (27%). In contrast, it fell threefold reaching the bottom of timber pie chart (9%) according to measured regional contributions.
All remaining three regions showed approximately the same pattern with only 2% difference from each other (14%, 16%, and 18%). Moreover, timber production in Asia and Europe rose steadily, accounting the 18% and 20%, respectively. However, South America grown considerably by achieving the second most dominant position of timber (23%) in recent international timber statistics despite having fewer forest resources available.
