2. INDICATORS FOR CONTINENTS AND REGIONS

This Section provides an overview of the state of agricultural land in different continents/regions. Data has been organised in two alternative ways. The first four tables of the section present spatial and temporal comparisons among economic groups, continents and regional groups. These tables bring together average data for 1998-2000 to reveal the current status of the group and the growth rate for the period 1989-1991 to 1998-2000 to reveal how the indicator was behaving over the total period. The second set of tables presents indicators for continental and regional groups at three points of time, namely average for the periods 1989-1991, 1994-1996 and 1998-2000 to supplement conclusions drawn from the first set.
