Answer 2

Answer:

Four Factors responsible for increased crop production in India are:

1. Adoption of high-yielding varieties of seeds:  The use of high-yielding varieties of seeds since 1966 has resulted in a substantial increase in food grain production. The cause of break­through in the production of wheat and rice has been attributed to magic seeds and certified seeds adopted by the agriculturists

2. Supply of chemical fertilizers: Besides high-yielding varieties of seeds, chemical fertilizer is the other input that is responsible for making the green revolution a signal success. In fact, the latest agricultural technology is referred to as seed and fertilizer technology.

3. Expansion of irrigation facilities: The role of irrigation facilities in bringing about the green revolution cannot be gainsaid. Sir Charles Trevelyan rightly observed, “Irrigation is everything in India. Water is more valuable than land because when water is applied to land it increases its productiveness at least six-fold and renders great extent of land productive, which otherwise, would produce nothing or next to nothing.”

4. Use of machinery: Economists like Bergmann hold the view that despite its adverse effect on overall employment, the role of machinery in accelerating the growth of the green revolution is, indeed, great. The use of modern agricultural tools and implements like tractors, harvesters, threshers, pump sets sprayers, etc. has led to progressive agriculture. As a consequence of the use of machinery, there has been a substantial increase in the area under assured irrigation, multiple cropping, and an increase in agricultural productivity.
