Question: “There are two figures for total global steel production. Why?”
Answer: worldsteel produces two tables. One is the table of monthly crude steel production, and the other is the annual summary. The annual total shown in the monthly table includes only the 64 countries that report data on a monthly basis. The annual summary includes other countries, which do not report monthly data.
