Table 19: Specialisation and Coverage Ratios by Industry
The first column in this table shows the specialisation ratios for an industry. An industry may produce a number of products, some of which may be primary to that industry and some of which may be primary to other industries. The specialisation ratio shows the proportion of an industry's output that is primary to that industry.
For example, the entire (100%) output of the Sheep industry is attributed to the output primary to this industry, 99.2% of the output of the Coal industry is attributed to the output primary to this industry and so on.
The second column in this table shows the coverage ratios for a product. A product may be supplied by more than one industry. The coverage ratio shows what proportion of the total domestic supply of a product is produced by the industry to which the product is primary.
For example, the entire (100%) Sheep product is produced by the Sheep industry to which the product is primary, 85.9% of the Meat and meat products is produced by the Meat and meat products industry to which the product is primary and so on.
