Question

What is the need for a green revolution?

Options

• Low Irrigation Facility

• Conventional and Traditional Approach

• Frequent Occurrence of Famines

• All of the above

Answer 1

All of the above

Explanation:

The needs of the Green Revolution are as follows:

1. Low Irrigation Facility: 
   In 1951, just 17% of the land was irrigated by wells or was permanently irrigated. Because the majority of the area was dependent on rainfall, agriculture suffered from low productivity.
2. Conventional and Traditional Approach:
   The use of traditional inputs and the lack of modern procedures limited agricultural production even more.
3. Frequent Occurrence of Famines:
   Famines were fairly common in India from the 1940s through the 1970s. Furthermore, due to the faster rate of population expansion, agriculture was unable to keep up.
