The document discusses the history and impact of the Green Revolution in India. It began in the 1960s when high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice were introduced, along with increased use of irrigation, fertilizers, and pesticides. Key figures involved included Norman Borlaug and M.S. Swaminathan. The Green Revolution dramatically increased food grain production but also led to environmental and health problems from overuse of chemicals. More sustainable agricultural practices are now needed.
Green revolution
The Green Revolution significantly increased agricultural productivity in India through the introduction of high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice, increased fertilizer and pesticide use, and improved irrigation techniques. Led by Indian agronomist M.S. Swaminathan and supported by Mexican scientist Norman Borlaug, the Green Revolution transformed India from a food-deficient nation in the 1960s to a major food exporter by the late 1970s through high crop yields that established India as one of the world's largest agricultural producers. However, overuse of chemicals polluted water sources and soils over time. Future agricultural plans need better management of irrigation and controls on pesticide and fertilizer use to minimize environmental impacts.
Green Revolution
Agriculture before the Green Revolution was limited by lack of irrigation and technology, resulting in low and unpredictable crop yields. This caused global concerns about the ability to feed growing populations. After independence, India established agricultural institutions and saw some improvements but productivity remained low. The Green Revolution starting in the 1960s introduced high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice, irrigation projects, and chemical fertilizers, doubling food production in India and alleviating famine concerns. Agricultural advances after the Green Revolution continued to increase yields and crop diversification.
Green revolution
The document discusses the history and impact of the Green Revolution. It describes three major agricultural revolutions: 1) the Neolithic Revolution involving the transition to farming, 2) the British Agricultural Revolution involving increases in labor and land productivity, and 3) the Green Revolution involving the development and adoption of high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice in developing countries between the 1950s-1960s. Key organizations involved in the Green Revolution included the Ford Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation. Norman Borlaug was a leading agricultural scientist who developed disease-resistant wheat varieties, increasing yields and saving over a billion people from starvation. The Green Revolution spread to India in the 1960s and significantly increased food grain production through the adoption of new seeds, fertilizers,
Green revolution an over view
The green revolution was a period in the 20th century where agricultural productivity greatly increased due to new technologies. Norman Borlaug conducted research in Mexico in 1940 that developed high-yielding varieties of wheat, laying the foundation for the green revolution. In 1965, under Dr. M.S. Swaminathan, the Indian government accelerated the green revolution through initiatives like expanding farmlands, introducing artificial monsoons, enabling multiple cropping per year, and developing high-yield crop varieties that used fertilizers and pesticides. The green revolution transformed many nations from food deficient to self-sufficient.
History of Agriculture in India
Ancient agriculture in India began as early as 9000 BCE with the cultivation of crops and domestication of animals in northwest India. Settled life followed, along with the development of agricultural implements and techniques. By 8000-4000 BCE, agro-pastoralism was common and included practices like threshing crops, planting in rows, and storing grain. Major innovations in irrigation occurred in the Indus Valley Civilization by 4500 BCE, allowing cities to grow and prosper. Vedic texts from 3000-2500 BCE describe iron tools, cultivation of various crops and fruits, animal husbandry, and the use of manure and irrigation.

Role of agriculture in indian economy
1. Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy, contributing around 16% to GDP and employing over 75% of the rural population.
2. India is the second largest producer of farm output globally and the largest producer of milk, cashews, coconuts, tea, and several other crops.
3. Agriculture has played a crucial role in meeting India's food needs and making the country self-sufficient in food grains production.
Food production in india
Indian agriculture began around 9000 BCE with cultivation of crops and domestication of animals. Over time, land and water management systems developed along with tools and techniques. By the 5th millennium BCE, agricultural communities spread in Kashmir growing crops like rice, sugarcane, tropical fruits. Major agricultural developments occurred during the Indus Valley civilization and colonial British rule introduced new crops. In modern India, the Green, White, and Yellow Revolutions significantly increased food production through high-yielding varieties, irrigation, mechanization, and other innovations. However, India still faces challenges in achieving self-sufficiency in edible oils.
Green revoulation in agriculture
The presentation discusses the Green Revolution in agriculture, which refers to a large increase in crop production through the use of modern techniques. It was sparked by scientists like Norman Borlaug who developed high-yielding varieties of major crops that responded well to fertilizers and irrigation. This led to a crop surge starting in the 1960s, boosting food production in countries like India, Mexico, and Bangladesh. While the Green Revolution increased yields and food security, it also led to environmental issues from overuse of chemicals and could leave small farmers unemployed. More sustainable farming methods are now needed.

Organic farming
The document discusses the problems with traditional chemical-based farming including soil and water contamination. It introduces organic farming as an alternative that is eco-friendly and restores ecological balance by avoiding chemical pesticides and fertilizers. The benefits of organic farming are highlighted as having higher nutritional value, generating more employment, and access to international markets. However, organic farming also faces limitations like inadequate infrastructure and marketing problems. The government has introduced initiatives to support farmers such as Kisan Credit Cards for loans, rehabilitation packages, low interest rates on agricultural loans, and loan waivers.
Green Revolution
The Green Revolution in India occurred between 1967-1978 and focused on increasing food grain production through the introduction of high-yielding variety seeds, expansion of irrigation through dams, and double-cropping existing farmland. This led to a significant increase in food grain production, with India becoming a net exporter, but the benefits were not evenly distributed across India and questions remained about long-term sustainability and self-sufficiency.
White revolution
Operation Flood was a rural development program launched in India in 1970 to boost milk production and rural incomes. It created a nationwide milk grid through village milk cooperatives that procured milk from local producers and provided inputs and services. As a result of Operation Flood, milk production in India increased dramatically from 17 million tons in 1950-51 to over 84 million tons in 2001-02, making India the largest milk producer in the world. The program was hugely successful in increasing milk availability and establishing a self-sustaining dairy industry.

Second green revolution for sustainable agriculture development
The document discusses the need for a second green revolution in India to promote sustainable agriculture. It notes that while the first green revolution greatly increased food production, it had several shortcomings like benefiting large farmers more than small farmers. Current issues affecting Indian agriculture include overdependence on monsoons, declining investment, and growing rural poverty. The document argues that the second green revolution should focus on expanding irrigation, increasing coverage of crops beyond rice and wheat, ensuring adequate inputs and credit, improving rural infrastructure and human resources, and boosting agricultural marketing. This will help address issues of sustainability and make agriculture less vulnerable to climate impacts.
Credit Policy for Agriculture in India
This document provides an overview of the history and development of credit policy for agriculture in India. It discusses how rural indebtedness has long been a problem and the various steps taken over time to address this, including establishing co-operative credit societies in 1904, priority sector lending requirements for banks in 1972, establishing regional rural banks in 1975, and developing new programs like interest subvention, debt waiver schemes, self-help groups, and financial inclusion initiatives. It also analyzes trends in the sources and growth of agricultural credit over time from different institutional agencies.

Organic farming presentation rrrrrrrr
Before the Green Revolution, India faced food scarcity and relied on imports due to traditional organic farming practices. In the 1960s, under M.S. Swaminathan's leadership, the Green Revolution introduced high-yielding varieties and chemical fertilizers/pesticides, increasing food production and attaining self-sufficiency. However, continuous chemical use degraded soils and polluted water/air. While chemical farming boosted short-term yields, organic farming maintains soil health and is more sustainable. Organic farming avoids chemicals and uses organic manures/compost to nourish soils and crops. Both methods have benefits and drawbacks, so policy support is needed for organic techniques to increase production in an environmentally friendly way.

The document discusses the Green Revolution in India. It began in the 1960s and led to increased food grain production through the use of high-yielding seed varieties, fertilizers, and irrigation. Key figures in the Green Revolution included Norman Borlaug and M.S. Swaminathan. The introduction of these new agricultural technologies made India self-sufficient in food grains and improved agriculture. However, overuse of chemical pesticides and fertilizers also led to negative environmental impacts like land degradation over time.
Green revolution
Green Revolution began in India in the 1960s in response to concerns about food security. New high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice developed by Dr. Norman Borlaug were introduced, along with increased use of irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides, and farm mechanization. This led to greatly increased food grain production, making India self-sufficient and reducing the need for food imports. Key components of the Green Revolution included development of infrastructure like irrigation projects, rural electrification, and agriculture support services. The document provides details on the introduction and impact of these Green Revolution strategies and technologies in India.

Impact Of Green Revolution On Economy, In India
The document discusses the major economic impacts of the Green Revolution in India. It led to a phenomenal increase in agricultural production, especially of wheat and food grains. This resulted in prosperity for farmers, particularly large farmers, and a reduction in India's need to import food grains. The Green Revolution encouraged capitalistic farming and the ploughing back of profits to reinvest in agriculture. It stimulated industrial growth in farm machinery and agro-based industries. While mechanization increased rural employment opportunities, it also led to a change in farmers' attitudes as they increasingly adopted new technologies.

The document discusses the Green Revolution in India. It began in the 1960s and led to increased food grain production through the use of high-yielding varieties of seeds, fertilizers, irrigation and other modern farming techniques. Key people involved included Norman Borlaug and M.S. Swaminathan. While production increased, issues emerged such as negative impacts on soils from overuse of chemicals and farmers taking on debt to pay for costly new technologies. Suggestions are made to further support farmers and fuel continued agricultural growth.
Troy C Presentation
The Green Revolution refers to high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice developed in the 1960s to address the global food crisis. Dr. Norman Borlaug led efforts to create seeds with traits like short stature and disease resistance. Developing countries adopted these varieties along with irrigation, fertilizers, and mechanization to boost yields. This dramatically increased food production and lowered prices, improving global food security and saving millions from starvation despite population growth. However, overuse of inputs poses environmental risks if not properly managed in the future. Continued research is needed to sustain food security with a growing population and limited resources.
Greenrevolution
The Green Revolution in India occurred between 1967-1978 and focused on increasing food production through the use of high-yield variety seeds, expanding cultivated land, and double-cropping existing farmland using irrigation. This led to record grain output, improved yields, and made India mostly self-sufficient in food production, though questions remained about whether it achieved permanent and total food security given occasional shortages.

- 1. A PRESENTATION ON GREEN REVOLUTION PRESENTED BY MAHTAB FATHIMA Master of commerce Government first grade college for women
- 3. • In 1965 the government of India mrs Indra Gandhi decided to take a major step on agriculture condition. • Thus "green revaluation was applied to the period from 1967to1978 basically in parts of Punjab and Haryana. • At this stage the green revaluation was concern only with wheat and rice. •Dr swaminathan from India' led green revaluation as the Punjab GREEN REVALUATION IS ALSO KNOWN AS SEEDS, WATER FERTILIZERS-PESTICIDES- TECHNOLOGY
- 4. DEFINITION J.G HARRAR "The green revaluation is the phase generally used to describe the spectacular increase that took place during 1967-68 and continuing in the production of food grains in India".
- 5. HISTORY OF GREEN REVOLUTION • The beginning of the Green Revaluation are often attributed to NORMAN Borlaug an American scientists interested in agriculture.In 1940's he began conducting research in maxico and developed new disease resistance high-yield varieties of wheat • Due to the success of the Green Revaluation in Mexico it's technologies spread world wide in the 1950's and1960's
- 6. • The high-yielding varieties of seeds after 1965and the increase use of fertilizers and irrigation provide the increase in production which improved agriculture in India
- 7. METHODS USED IN GREEN REVALUATION Multiple cropping system Seeds with superior genetics Proper irrigation system HYV seeds Pesticides and fertilizers Modern machines Expansion of farming areas
- 8. EFFECTS OF GREEN REVALUATION Increase in production Capitalistic forming Effect on Rural employment Reduction in imports of food grains Development of industries Effect on pricess Base for economic Growth Effect on consumer
- 10. ISSUES REGARDING GREEN REVALUATION Population and erosion of soil Pollution of water Unemployment among uneducated former Deadly disease Harmfull for former Consumption may be advance
- 11. NEEDS FOR SECOND GREEN REVALUATION India has tremendous export potential in agriculture in present era of globalisation. In second Green Revaluation emphasis should be laid on Non food grains Improving global market opportunities Improving rural infrastructure Improving rural roads and electrification
- 12. Conclusion •As a technalogic innovation the Green Revaluation replaced "one way of life in another in short span of two decodes •The lesson learned from this green Revaluation should enable policy Markets to reduce the adverse effects of the coming Biorevalution based on genetic engineering
