The German Colonies' Production
|
Only production for export can be expressed in figures; production for domestic trade can not be registered, and there are only
isolated data on production for their own consumption. In the case of certain articles, figures for production and export should
coincide, such as in the case of caoutchouk and in the case of exclusive plantation products such as sisal hemp and cocoa.
