The significant shifts in Indian agriculture during green revolution include

  • A.non-food grains reported some spectacular progress and shift in the cropping pattern
  • B.major food grains, in the eastern regions productions decreased and in the northern states increased
  • C.both (a) and (b)
  • D.None of the above

Answer: C

Both shifts occurred.

The green revolution raised wheat and rice yields sharply, but the gains were concentrated in Punjab, Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh, where irrigation was assured. Non-food crops also advanced, while the eastern regions, dependent on rainfall and with smaller holdings, largely missed the benefit - which widened regional inequality.
