An economy allocates its scarce resources between the production of Agricultural Output and Eco-tourism Services, as shown by the production possibility frontier (PPF) below.

Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) diagram showing Agricultural Output versus Eco-tourism Services with point U inside the curve and point V on the curve.

If the economy moves its production from point U U\,U to point VVV, which of the following best describes this movement?

An outward shift in the PPF boundary, signifying long-run economic growth
