Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Neither A nor B.
Given the impact of the Green Revolution on farmers in India:
- Statement A is generally correct because the Green Revolution did help many farmers increase their income by improving agricultural productivity through high-yielding varieties of crops, better irrigation, and advanced farming techniques.
- Statement B is also correct in the broader context, as many farmers did reinvest their surplus income to further improve agricultural productivity. However, it's worth noting that the extent of this reinvestment varied among different farmers due to factors such as access to credit, infrastructure, and regional disparities.
