Answer 2

Answer:

• In the late 1960s, the Green Revolution introduced the Indian farmer to the cultivation of high-yielding varieties (HYVs) of seeds.
• The HYVs (coupled with chemical fertilisers and pesticides) led to a growth in the productivity of food grains (especially wheat and rice), thereby helping India attain self-sufficiency in food grains.
• Since the advent of the Green Revolution, the country has avoided famine even during adverse weather conditions.
