Agriculture/Economy Class in Tamil- SECOND GREEN REVOLUTION| UPSC & TNPSC
In an effort to tackle sluggish long-term agricultural growth in India, Prime Minister Modi is calling for a second Green Revolution. One in every two Indians relies on agriculture for livelihood, yet India still has the second highest number of undernourished people in the world. It is not surprising, therefore, that our government wants to promote a return to that golden era of the 1970s and 80s, which saw record yields thanks to the technologies made available at the time - we had improved high yielding varieties of rice and wheat, better irrigation, fertilisers, and pesticides.

1. Taking country to 4% growth in Agriculture
