    Solution

    India meets 60 per cent of its edible oils demand through imports,┬аmaking it vulnerable to international movements in prices. For instance,┬аsunflower oil, which makes up 15 percent of our total edible oil imports, is procured mainly from Ukraine and Russia.┬аHence, statement 1 is correct. Out of 60% of the edible oils consumed in the country through imports, palm oil constitutes around 54% of the total edible oil imported mainly from Indonesia and Malaysia, while Soybean oil constitutes around 25% and is imported from Argentina and Brazil and Sunflower oil constitutes 15% and is imported mainly from Ukraine and Russia. Hence, statement 3 is incorrect. Statement 2 is self-explanatory from image.┬аHence, statement 2 is not correct
