Answer:

1. It may not produce enough results to create a profitable outcome.

Farmers must look at the composition of their soil to determine if the practices encouraged by the Green Revolution are useful in their situation. If the 30-30-30 barrier is crossed, then the risk of negative returns increases exponentially. This threshold means the farmer would need to use 30 pounds each of potassium, phosphorus, and nitrogen for their farming needs. That investment would create a neutral, zero-profit return. Anything below it creates profit potential while losses occur on the other side.

2.It creates health impacts that we must consider with its practices.

When humans consume pesticides or receive exposure to the chemical agents while working in their fields, then it may increase the risk of cancer for some operators. Poor farming practices, which include over-using products and not using masks, kill up to 20,000 people each year because of direct exposure. There are also links to soft tissue sarcomas and malignant lymphoma to certain herbicides and pesticides.  Several cancers, such as non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, leukemia, and certain breast and ovarian cancers, are linked to these practices as well.

3.It reduces the quality of the soil used for growing crops.

You will encounter varying opinions about how wild biodiversity is impacted by the results of the Green Revolution. What we do know is that the repetitive use of the same crops on the same land results in a depletion of soil nutrients. This outcome forces farmers, especially in the developing world, to look for new areas to keep up with their production quotas. It is a disadvantage that has led to continued deforestation because the current croplands cannot support the changing agricultural biome. The Rio Treaty in 1992 acknowledges this disadvantage, assigning the loss of biodiversity to the expansion of agriculture. This agreement was signed by 189 countries.
