in 2005 more sugarcane was produced as the number of both numericals is same but at ten lacs place there is 4 in 2005 production .
so by how much more metric tons is to subtract lesser from bigger means = production in 2005 - production in 2003 i.e = 4905369-2543475=2,361,894 more sugar was produced as compared to 2003 in 2005
