The line graph illustrates the figures for the intake and production of sugar in India over a span of 10 years.
Overall, the consumption of sugar remained stable throughout the period, albeit with a slight improvement. Whereas, the rates of production underwent wild fluctuations.
Starting with intake first, in 2001 it began at approximately 23, increased minimally to 25, and dropped to 24 in 2003. By 2007 the figure recovered through gradual growth. However, after the recovery it followed a steady upward trend.
Moving to manufacturing, starting with about 27 it declined noticeably to 25 and 17 by 2005, and for the following 6 years the rates fluctuated wildly between 20 and 40. After the fall, it improved significantly to almost 35, which was its peak and the highest figure throughout the period. Besides that, the sugar production witnessed a dramatical decrease to 21 by 2009, followed by a gradual increase to 31 in 2011.
