Between 1950 and 1965, the Indian Government invested heavily on irrigation and Power project. It was hoped that this would raise crop production and solve the problem of food storage. Big dams for irrigation and electricity generation like Bhakra- Nangal (Himachal Pradesh), Damodar valley (West Bengal) , Hirakund (Odisha) , Nagar juna Sagar (Telangana and Andhra Pradesh), Gandhi Sagar (Madhya Pradesh) were conducted.

Despite these developments,foods shortage continued. During 1962-65 , India faced two wars and the government spend a lot money on the war. There was a little rain in and these years 1965 and 1966 were declared as drought years. This led to decline in the production of food grains and forced the government to import foograin

This situation of depending on other countries for food requirements worried the Indian leaders. The Indian Government began to change the policy towards agriculture and this phase was called as Green Revolution.
