Vedclass · Answer

(D) The Green Revolution was a period of significant increase in agricultural production,particularly in developing countries,during the mid-$20^{th}$ century.It relied on three main pillars to boost crop yields:$1.$ Improved crop varieties: The development and use of high-yielding varieties $(HYVs)$ of seeds,such as those of wheat and rice.$2.$ Agro-chemicals: The increased use of chemical fertilizers to provide essential nutrients and pesticides/herbicides to protect crops from pests and diseases.$3.$ Better management practices: The implementation of modern irrigation systems,improved soil management,and scientific farming techniques.Since all three factors were essential for the success of the Green Revolution,the correct option is $I, II,$ and $III$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(a)$ Cross breeding	$(x)$ Jaya,Ratna
$(b)$ Interspecific hybridization	$(y)$ Saccharum barberi
$(c)$ Better-yielding semi-dwarf varieties	$(z)$ Hirsadale
$(d)$ South Indian variety of sugarcane	$(w)$ Mule
	$(v)$ Saccharum officinarum

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$P$. Vitamin $A$	$I$. Carrots,spinach,pumpkin
$Q$. Vitamin $C$	$II$. Bitter gourd,bathua,mustard,tomato
$R$. Iron and calcium	$III$. Spinach and bathua
$S$. Protein	$IV$. Broad bean,lablab,french bean,and garden pea

The Green Revolution succeeded in increasing the yield of crops mainly due to the use of:
$I.$ Improved varieties of crops
$II.$ Agro-chemicals (fertilizers and pesticides)
$III.$ Better management practices
Choose the correct option.
