The Green Revolution led to significant increases in crop yields through the use of high-yielding varieties, chemical fertilizers, and irrigation techniques. However, poor farmers often struggled to benefit from these advancements due to high costs associated with inputs and technology, which they could not afford. As larger, wealthier farmers capitalized on the new agricultural methods, the gap between rich and poor widened, leaving many smallholders at a disadvantage and increasing their vulnerability to economic instability. This dynamic sometimes resulted in land loss and increased indebtedness among poorer farming families.
