Question

Why were the Green Revolution and Wheat Revolution unable to achieve food security across the country?

• A. Insufficient production of foodgrains
• B. Excess production of foodgrains
• C. Disproportionate production of foodgrains
• D. Proportionate production of foodgrains

Answer 1

The correct option is C Disproportionate production of foodgrains

The Green Revolution led to a massive increase in the production of foodgrains such as wheat and rice. However, the increase in foodgrains was disproportionate. As a result, different parts of India achieved different growth rates of foodgrains. Therefore, it required a good distribution system to ensure the availability of these foodgrains across the country.
