SPECIALIZATION
Specialization, in production, is focusing on a particular good or service of a business in order to maximize the efficiency and effectivity of production. An example of specialization are countries where goods come from. In certain countries where the seasons are tropical, their specialization are goods like fruits and rice where they have already formulated the best ways and procedures to ensure maximum efficiency and effectivity. Most countries have their own specialization where global trade is essential. Only very few countries have the ability to be completely self-sufficient.
