The table shows forested land in millions of hectares in different parts of the world. /Users/elifceylan/Desktop/task 1.jpg

The table below provides information about the forest area in millions of hectares on six different continents in a given period of fifteen

years

.

Overall

, all the continents experienced a different trend throughout the period.

Although

, Asia's land section was lower at the onset,

nevertheless

, it surpassed Oceania with a high figure. Europe contributed the highest forest land in all the

years

as compared to other sectors.

To begin

with, in 1990, the agricultural portion in Europe was 989,000,000. The figure just increased a little bit in the next ten

years

,

although

, it was the highest number recorded.

However

, the number surged to 1001,000,000 in 2005.

This

number was the highest as opposed to the other continent.

By contrast

, Africa and Asia did not show much difference in their forestry section, 749,000,000 and 576,000,000 respectively in 1990. The results were quite similar in 2000

as well as

in 2005. Surprisingly, Oceania recorded the lowest agricultural area. In fact, it was almost 200,000,000 in 1990 and decreased a little in the next fifteen

years

. With regard to South Africa, its allocation of land was quite intriguing. It reached 946,000,000 which was the second highest among all the contenders. The figure decreased in the following ten

years

until it reached its lowest peak of 882,000,000 in 2005.
