Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2021, Kyrgyz Republic's forest rents (% of GDP) fell 0 percentage points on 2020 (from 0.01% to 0.01%).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1991 to 2020), the average change was +0 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 0.01 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.1 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 0.02 percentage points in 1997 and the biggest yearly fall was 0.01 percentage points in 2001. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2012 to 2021 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains less than 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
