A farmer asks his friend for a solution to his productivity and income being low.

| I am living in perpetual poverty. I am unable to grow any surplus to sell in the market, which results in low income. My family remains hungry as I barely have enough food to feed them. | |
 | |  |
|

| | |
| You are in luck, my friend! Due to the result of the 'Green Revolution', farmers mainly in Punjab and Haryana were able to grow more from the same piece of land. I shall tell you how. | |

The 'Green Revolution' brought about a major change in the lives of farmers. It was mainly practised in Punjab and Haryana, and farmers only grew large yields of wheat and rice.

| Farmers in Punjab and Haryana flourished and grew wealthy using modern farming methods.Modern farming is using modern means such as HYV seeds, pesticides and fertilisers to increase yield per hectare | |

| Thank you so much! I will finally be able to keep my family and myself happy, and will also have a good amount of surplus to sell. | |

| You are welcome! Another way to increase productivity on the same piece of land is by multiple cropping, which is growing more than one type of crop on a single piece of land. I am glad I could help. | |
