Advantages: More food with less labor. An all-organic agriculture regimen would support about a billion or less on Earth it’s that inefficient so the Green Revolution allows over 6.3 billion people to live here and that’s with 130% of the needed food produced now (we lose that much to transportation, storage, and distribution systems that are very inefficient.)

Disadvantages: Starvation keeps populations passive and shrinking so easier to rule. Fans of eugenics routinely fight the green revolution as they want to see billions of people unlike themselves quietly die off to reduce stress on the eco-systems. As they think there’s 7 billion or so too many humans alive right now, that’s a lot of famines to achieve that.

If you hate the Green Revolution you hate people. In Norman Borlaug’s efforts to extend the Green Revolution to Africa where mass famines are still quite common, he got a lot of active and passive resistance from the international non-governmental organizations that often operate on a Malthusian/Eugenics-based paradigm of there’s too many poor people already and letting most die solves many other problems. “The Economist” noted that in Borlaug’s obituary.
