Indian farmers rebelled against being forced to grow indigo plants. The Blue Rebellion broke out in March 1859, which was the beginning of the collapse of indigo production in Bengal. Farmers refused to pay rent to the planters. They attacked the indigo factories with weapons and their womenfolk attacked with pots and pans. The agents of the planters were beaten and farmers who worked for the planters were socially segregated.

Britishers behaved inhumane with the Indians and asked them to cultivate only indigo but after first war of independence in 1857, Britishers reduced the time period for Indian to cultivate indigo as they were afraid that if they would again rise and revolt against them so this was the cause of collapse of indigo production in Bengal
