In analyses of growth in terms of production it should<br />
be taken into account that production differs from value<br />
added since intermediate consumption is included.<br />
Production measurements in real terms are only available<br />
for manufacturing sectors in the data sources used in this<br />
publication. <strong>EU</strong> average annual production growth rates<br />
in 1995‑2010 are very different across sectors. Growth<br />
in the more ‘traditional’ and labour‑intensive sectors<br />
declined more than in other sectors. Declining annual<br />

production growth rates in 1995‑2010 can be witnessed in<br />
leather and footwear, clothing, tobacco and textiles where<br />
growth declined on average by between 2.5 % and 5 %<br />
in 1995‑2009. Conversely, the highest growing sectors<br />
tend to be more capital‑intensive. Average production<br />
growth in 1995‑2010 was the highest in pharmaceuticals,<br />
computer, electronic and optical products and in motor<br />
vehicles where growth increased by between 3 %<br />
and 5.4 %, cf. Figure III.2.
