Why has the Green Revolution benefitted only a small section of India?
1 Large dependence on manual labour.
2 Poor storage facilities.
3 Poor farm management and administration.
4 All of the above.
Explanation:
All of the above. Features of the Green RevolutionThe introduction of the HYV seeds for the first time in Indian agriculture. These seeds had more success with the wheat crop and were highly effective in regions that had proper irrigation. So the first stage of the Green Revolution was focused on states with better infra – like Punjab and Tamil Nadu.During the second phase, the HYV seeds were given to several other states. And other crops than wheat were also included into the planOne basic requirement for the HYV seeds is proper irrigation. Crops from HYV seeds need alternating amounts of water supply during its growth. So the farms cannot depend on monsoons. The Green Revolution vastly improved the inland irrigation systems around farms in India.The emphasis of the plan was mostly on food grains such as wheat and rice. Cash crops and commercial crops like cotton, jute, oilseeds etc were not a part of the planIncreased availability and use of fertilizers to enhance the productivity of the farmsUse of pesticides and weedicides to reduce any loss or damage to the cropsAnd finally the introduction of technology and machinery like tractors, harvesters, drills etc. This helped immensely to promote commercial farming in the country.
