Value Added of the EU bioeconomy - infographic

Bioeconomy

Input output flow between 100% bioeconomy industries and partly bioeconomy industries creates the downstream and upstream effect.These effects represent the bioeconomy value added generated at partly bioeconomic industries by input flow from 100% bioeconomy industries to partly bioeconomy industries (downstream) and by output flow from partly bioeconomic industries as input to 100% bioeconomic industries. Hence, we measure the bioeconomy value added that is not directly apparent as agriculture, forestry and fishing but rather hidden under other partly bioeconomy industries such as construction. The results cover 27 European Union Member States and UK and 16 industries of BioMonitor scope from 2005 to 2015. In this infographic the data displayed are for 2015.
