“Revolución Verde,” or “Green Revolution,” refers to a period and movement in the mid-20th century that significantly increased agricultural production worldwide, particularly in developing countries. This revolution was characterized by the introduction of high-yielding varieties of staple crops, extensive use of fertilizers and pesticides, improved irrigation techniques, and the adoption of mechanized farming practices. The aim was to combat hunger and poverty by boosting food production in response to population growth. The Green Revolution is often associated with advances in agricultural research, technology, and the development of modern farming practices, which led to increased crop outputs, especially in countries like India and Mexico during the 1960s and 1970s. While it greatly enhanced food security for many, the Green Revolution also raised concerns about environmental sustainability, socio-economic inequalities, and reliance on chemical inputs in agriculture.
