Demand by product segment is also forecast for each major world region.
To illustrate historical trends world, product, and regional demand are provided for 2007
and 2012. Further, regional demand is segmented by market for 2012.
Finally, world production is segmented by major world region and provided for 2007,
2012, and 2017.
Forecasts emanate from the identification and analysis of pertinent statistical
relationships and other historical trends/events as well as their expected
progression/impact over the forecast period. Changes in quantities between reported
years of a given total or segment are typically provided in terms of five-year compound
annual growth rates (CAGRs). For the sake of brevity, forecasts are generally stated in
smoothed CAGR-based descriptions to the forecast year, such as demand is projected
to rise 3.2% annually through 2017. The result of any particular year over that period,
however, may exhibit volatility and depart from a smoothed, long-term trend, as
historical data typically illustrate.
