The line graph illustrates the variations in the levels of coffee exports from three countries: Brazil, Colombia and Costa Rica from 2002 to 2012. Overall, there were some fluctuations, but over the period as a whole, the levels of exports of all three countries ends up higher than it starts over the timeframe.
Brazil and Costa Rica stood at a fairly similar level of between 12 and 15 million kilograms in 2002. However, the level of coffee export from Costa Rica dropped significantly to 7. 5 million, whereas the exports from Brazil increased steadily from 2002 to 2006. At the end of the period, they both follow a similar trend and the amount of coffee exported from Brazil and Costa Rica reached their peak of 25 million and 20 million respectively.
Colombia, on the other hand, began its exports of coffee at 5 million kilograms, which was lower than that of exports from the other two countries. Afterwards, over the following four years, the level of exports in Colombia experienced a gradual growth. Then, though unlike Brazil and Costa Rica, there was a dramatic drop in the number of exports and it hit a low of only 2. 5 million. Finally, the exports increased considerably over the period to finish at 15 million in 2012, the lowest of that year.
