Question

which of these methods were part of the green revolutions efforts to increase productivity? select 5 options.
breeding superior types of grains
use of machinery
use of irrigation
use of fertilization
emphasis on single crops
soil conservation
avoidance of pesticides

Explanation:

The Green Revolution aimed to increase agricultural productivity. Breeding superior grains (e.g., high - yielding varieties) was a key method. Machinery use (e.g., tractors) sped up farming processes. Irrigation ensured water availability for crops. Fertilization provided nutrients. Emphasizing single crops (monocropping in some cases) was also part of the approach as it could be more efficient with the new technologies. Soil conservation was not a main method of the Green Revolution which was more focused on input - intensive farming. Avoidance of pesticides was not part of the Green Revolution as chemical pesticides were often used.

Answer:

breeding superior types of grains, use of machinery, use of irrigation, use of fertilization, emphasis on single crops
