An expression

0 There is one thing that I do not know how to express properly. It is about 'comparison'. 02br
02br
00For instance, the proportion of three industries (agriculture, manufacturing, and services) in 1990 is 60:30:10, but the proportion in 2000 is 10:30:60. 02br
02br
00Then I made a figure to emphasize the change between the two years. Under it, I have to explain the figure. 02br
02br
00Is it correct to say "Fig1. Comparison between proportions of three industries (agriculture, manufacturing, and services) from 1990 to 2000." ? 02br
02br
00It sounds awkward. But I can't figure out another way. :-s 02br
02br
00Hope you help me out. 02br
02br
00Thank you! 0-
