Buyer meetings stall when a single bar shows “yield” without saying whether it is total weight or first-grade weight. Grade mix charts exist to keep that distinction visible.

A practical layout uses two panels: total tonnes per hectare beside the share of first-grade, processing-grade, and reject. Readers can see whether a heavy plot still disappointed on quality.

In Taiwan(China) fruit and tea contracts, volume and grade often travel together. Presenting only tonnage invites a follow-up question you could have answered on the first slide.

We recommend labeling the grading standard you used — cooperative house rule, buyer spec, or farm practice — in a short caption. Without that note, year-over-year grade charts compare unequal rulers.

If one plot was diverted entirely to processing, say so. Silent omissions make the remaining first-grade share look stronger than the block experienced.
