tuotoksissa

Tuotoksissa is a Finnish grammatical form and not a separate concept. It is the inessive plural form of the noun tuotos, which means yield, product, or output. The phrase literally means “in the yields” or “in the outputs” and is used when discussing multiple production results within a given context.

The term appears in statistical, agricultural, forestry, energy, manufacturing, and economic reporting. It is used to refer to changes, variability, or characteristics observed across several outputs rather than a single yield. For example, “Viime vuoden tuotoksissa havaittiin huomattavaa vaihtelua” translates to “In last year’s yields there was considerable variation.” Another example is “Energiantuotannon tuotoksissa voi olla vaihtelua polttoaineen saatavuuden mukaan” meaning “In energy production yields there may be fluctuations due to the availability of fuel.”

In practice, tuotoksissa functions as a locative reference to multiple outputs within a dataset or study. It contrasts with singular forms such as tuotoksessa (in the yield) or the plural nominative tuotokset (yields). Finnish grammar uses the inessive plural to situate discussion within the context of several outputs, often in sentence constructs that describe trends, comparisons, or regional differences.

Etymology: tuotos derives from the verb tuottaa, to produce. The final form tuotoksissa conforms to the standard Finnish plural inessive suffixes -issa/-issä. Related forms include tuotoksista (from the yields), tuotoksille (to the yields), and tuotoksissa has a specific function of locating discussion within multiple outputs.
