Merits : 1. Higher Yield. 2. Machines made for ploughing harvesting easy. 3. Surplus food can be sold to earn more. 4. Pests and insects controlled by pesticides and insecticides. 5. Good irrigation enhances production. Demerits : 1. Loss of fertility with use of chemicalfertilizers. 2. Use of tube wells reduced the water table. 3. Chemical fertilizers polluted ground water. 4.
