Answer 1

Answer:

HYV full form is High Yielding Variety. HYV seeds are resistant and have a high yielding potential against insects and diseases. Such seeds are of higher quality and are a better choice for growing crops in abundance and in a safe way. In the Green Revolution of India, the high yielding variety of seeds played a significant role. Usually, the high yielding seeds are resistant to flood and drought and have higher-yielding consistency. The high-yielding program was introduced in the Kharif season of 1966 in selected areas with guaranteed rainfall.
