    Question: The first phase of the Green Revolution was restricted largely to two crops and the regions where they are grown. Which of the following pairs best represents these two crops?

    Options:

    Rice, corn
    Wheat, rice
    Cotton, indigo
    Millet, wheat

    🔑Key Points:
    The first phase of the Green Revolution was focused on increasing the yield of wheat and rice crops.
    Wheat and rice were chosen because they are staple food crops in many parts of the world.
    The regions where the Green Revolution was implemented include South Asia, Mexico, and parts of South America.
    The Green Revolution aimed to increase food production and reduce poverty by introducing high-yielding crop varieties, modern farming techniques, and irrigation systems.

    🔴Additional Information:
    The Green Revolution was a period of agricultural innovation that began in the 1940s and continued through the 1960s and 1970s.
    The term "Green Revolution" was coined by William Gaud, a director at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), in 1968.
    The Green Revolution had a significant impact on global food production and helped to alleviate hunger and poverty in many developing countries.
    In addition to wheat and rice, the Green Revolution also led to the development of high-yielding varieties of other crops, including maize, sorghum, and soybeans.
