Expert Answer
At the time of independence, a large chunk of farmers were dependent on the monsoon because of which they faced innumerable problems in farming activities which then led to the Green revolution.
- Technology and machinery used in farming were obsolete which resulted in low agricultural productivity. Famines affected agricultural productivity in the 1940s.
- Indian agriculture suffered from low productivity of food grains as more emphasis was given to cash crops during the colonial rule. This resulted in the shortage of food grains in India.
- Landlords and lenders exploited farmers because they were dependent on landlords and rural money lenders to meet their credit requirements. This resulted in the stagnation of the agricultural sector.
Thus Stagnation in agriculture was broken by the Green Revolution.
It refers to sustained increase in the production of food grains due to use of HYVs. This revolution was made possible by using HYV seeds, fertilisers, pesticides and irrigation facilities. In this way new technologies was adopted in the agricultural sector.
