The second phase of the Green Revolution, spanning from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s, represented a critical evolution in agriculture. Building upon the foundation laid by the initial Green Revolution in the mid-1960s, this phase aimed to expand its reach to new areas and boost crop productivity through innovations in technology, irrigation, and crop genetics.
This period also saw initiatives to mitigate the environmental and socio-economic drawbacks encountered during the first phase, by advocating for more sustainable farming methods and ensuring a fairer distribution of its advantages.
Consequently, the designated period is: Mid 1970s to mid 1980s.
