The document discusses the Green Revolution in India which began in the 1960s. It was a period of increased agricultural production led by Norman Borlaug's development of high-yielding varieties of wheat. This involved the introduction of modern farming techniques like irrigation, fertilizers, and pesticides. The Green Revolution initially focused on wheat and rice in Punjab and Haryana. It led to increased food grain production but also issues like pollution, disease, and unemployment. The document calls for a second Green Revolution with a focus on non-food grains and improving rural infrastructure and market opportunities.
