Answer 2

Answer:

(i)

                                  Sugar Production in India

Date      |  Total Production |  Internal Consumption  |  Export of sugar

______________________________________________________      

2000   |         3,78,000        |           1,54,000              |                -

2001    |         3,87,000        |           2,83,000             |          41,000      

(ii) To present these data in diagrammatic form we can use multiple bar diagrams because these are effective in comparing two or more sets of data.
