Latin America, Asia, and Africa, particularly Mexico, India, and Pakistan.

Mexico was a key country in Latin America where the Green Revolution had a major impact.

India and Pakistan were key countries in Asia where the Green Revolution had a major impact.

Sub-Saharan Africa and other regions with challenging environmental conditions or limited infrastructure.

Regions with intensive chemical farming practices, such as parts of India and Pakistan, experienced significant environmental degradation.

Regions where larger, more mechanized operations benefited at the expense of small farmers, such as parts of India.

Regions with increased agricultural production, such as parts of India and Pakistan, experienced improved food security.

Regions with heavy fertilizer use, such as parts of India and Pakistan, experienced water pollution from fertilizer runoff.

Regions with intensive chemical farming practices, such as parts of India and Pakistan, experienced soil degradation.

Regions with increased crop yields, such as parts of India and Pakistan, experienced increased agricultural exports.

Positive: Increased food production, improved food security, economic benefits. Negative: Environmental degradation, dependence on technology, social disruption.

Both were key advancements; high-yield seeds increased crop yields, while synthetic fertilizers boosted plant growth, but both had environmental consequences.

Both experienced increased food production, but also faced environmental degradation and social disruption, though the specific impacts varied.

Green Revolution: High-input, technology-driven, increased yields. Traditional: Low-input, sustainable, lower yields, but less environmental impact.

Economic: Increased agricultural exports, higher farmer incomes. Social: Displacement of small farmers, increased income inequality.

Green Revolution: High environmental degradation due to chemical use. Organic farming: Lower environmental impact due to sustainable practices.

Green Revolution: Increased food production. Sustainable agriculture: Long-term environmental and social well-being.

Government: Provided funding and resources. International aid: Supported developing countries in implementing new technologies.

Large farmers: Benefited from increased yields and access to markets. Small farmers: Faced displacement and increased competition.

Before: Limited and inefficient. After: Widespread and more efficient, but also led to water depletion and environmental issues.
