The Green Revolution was started in the 1960s by looking forward to the crisis of hunger and poverty in the country. The Green Revolution was initiated to increase the rate of rice and wheat by using HYV seeds in exchange for normal seeds. Due to the increase of rice and wheat there was a great decline in the production of other food crops. Impact of the green revolution directly led to imbalance of nutrition intake, affecting the environment and unavailability of proper food/capita.Letsdiskuss

Agricultural production in India tripled between 1950 and 1990, largely as a consequence of the green revolution.

The term "green revolution" was coined by Nobel laureate Norman Borlaug to describe the development of high-yield varieties of wheat that he introduced to Mexico in the early 1960s.

The green revolution started with Indian agriculturalist M.S Swaminathan, who developed this idea from his work with Mexico’s agriculture needs in 1960's. He said that if you look at rural India god help us, what rural India is today is what it will be tomorrow for other developing nations because the patterns are so similar.
