The diagram presented above illustrates the production of three distinct crops in Country Z across the period spanning from 1953 to 2007. In the drop-down menu below, select the answer that is most accurate according to the data given in the graph.
(I) A decline in the production of all three crops in Country Z is evident during the period from
Clearly, the curve dips (for all three crops) during the period 1998-2003
Hence, 1998-2003 is the correct answer
(II) The ratio between the minimum yield of Crop B and the maximum yield of Crop A is approximately
the minimum yield of Crop B (Red curve) = 2500 metric tons
the maximum yield of Crop A (Blue curve) = 40000 metric tons
thus, the ratio = 2500 / 40000 = 1 / 16
Hence, 1/16 is the correct answer

A decline in the production of all three crops in Country Z is evident during the period [1998 - 2003].
A: From 31k to 26k
C: From 23k to 20k
B: From 16k to 15k
The ratio between the minimum yield of Crop B and the maximum yield of Crop A is approximately [1:16].
Min of B: 2.5k in around 1970
Max of A: 40k in around 1991
\(\frac{Max A}{ Min B} = \frac{40}{2.5} = 16\)
