The given database provides information regarding the quantity of workers and factories producing silk in two certain countries being part of the United Kingdom from 1851 to 1901.
Overall, it is self-evident that the number of employees, both men and women, decreased as the end of the entire period approached with an exception to the group of working males in 1891, so the aggregate sum of all workmen was declining too. In addition, It should also be noted that the peak value for works amounted to 761 pieces in 1861.
To begin with, the quantity of male workers, which stood at approximately 54,000 in 1851, dropped moderately by its 20% in 1861. The next 2 decades saw a substantial fall to 25,766 followed by a slight increase of 3,000 in 1891. Eventually, this figure halved to its final point of 13,375 in the last interval. In comparison, the number of female employees in 1851 was by 9,000 units higher than that in 1861, when it showed a sum of about 68,000. By 1881 this rate had experienced significant downward trends, which led it to the level of around 32 thousands. After that, there was a modest descent of 6,500 in the year 1901.
As shown above, the quantities of workmen are plunging gradually regardless of their gender all the way it gets closer to the eventual date. Therefore, the summary number of working men and women witnessed a steady reduction as well. This total sum reached its lowest of 38,942 in 1901 beginning with the 130,750 in 1851, which was its maximum. Meanwhile, the sum of the plants was equal to 623 pieces, which is considerably larger than the 272 units recorded in 1851. Unlike in 1851, when the quantity was minimal, the greatest number was got after 10 years, and it made up 761. This figure, however, was then dwindled to 693 in 1871 making it pretty similar to the rate that was in 1881 with the difference between of only 9 points as it was 702. Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that the fibers were produced by 663 buildings in 1901 as there was a minor plummet of 39 started in 1891.
