Exercise 1: The graph below shows changes in wheat exports of Australia, Canada and European Community between 1985 and 1990. m8L08
The line chart compares the wheat exportation of three regions, namely Canada, Australia, and the European community from 1985 to 1990. Overall, the amount of wheat exported from Australia saw a downward trend in contrast to the increase in the figure for the EC. It is also noticeable that Canadian exports witnessed a wild fluctuation over the course of 5 years. In 1985, Australia exported about 15 million tonnes of wheat, which increased to 16 million tonnes in the following year, followed by gradual decline to end at slightly over 10 million tonnes in 1990. By contrast, the data of the European community saw a considerable rise from about 14 million to 21 million tonnes over the same period. A completely different pattern was seen in the amount of wheat exports in Canada which hovered around 20 million tonnes. This data started at almost 19 million tonnes in 1985, reached a peak in 1988 of 25 million before dramatically dropping to 14 million tonnes in 1989, and then climbed back to 19 million in 1990.
