Which of these is NOT one of the negative effects of the green revolution?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. The green revolution caused increased migration from urban to rural areas.
The statement “The Green Revolution caused increased migration from urban to rural areas” is NOT one of the negative effects of the Green Revolution.
In fact, the Green Revolution led to increased migration from rural to urban areas due to the displacement of small and marginal farmers and growing rural inequalities. While it boosted agricultural productivity, its benefits were mostly enjoyed by large landowners with better resources. Tenant farmers often lost land, and many rural poor moved to cities in search of work.
