The Green Revolution was an agricultural strategy introduced by the Indian government in 1966-67 to increase food production. It involved the introduction of high-yielding variety seeds, chemical fertilizers, and farm machinery. As a result of the Green Revolution, agricultural production increased through the use of Mexican wheat seeds, large amounts of fertilizers and pesticides, irrigation canals and borewells, and tractors. However, it also led to problems like the extinction of traditional seed varieties, soil degradation, increased pest attacks, farmer debt, and reduced job opportunities.
