New crops and crop rotation systems were trialled during the Agricultural Revolution. These new farming methods allowed the earth to recover nutrients, resulting in stronger crops and increased agricultural production. Productivity was boosted much more by improvements in irrigation and drainage.

Agricultural in India

• In India, many types of farming are practised, including maintenance, commercial farming, extensive and intensive farming, plantation farming, and mixed farming

• There are many factors that affect running an agriculture farm in India, and all of these practises are dependent on animals, the monsoon, and crops
• Crops in India are classified into four types: food crops, plantation crops, cash crops, and food crops
• Soil exhaustion, high farm input costs, depletion of fresh groundwater, globalization and liberalization, climate change, farmer suicide, and food security are all major challenges for Indian agriculture, which is suppressing its production, this led to an Agricultural revolution in India

Agricultural Revolution

 An agricultural revolution is a significance of agriculture in India that occurs as a result of discoveries, inventions, or the implementation of new technologies and creating consumer oriented policies. It is changing the production methods, increasing production rates and taking several revolutions in India. 

Protein Revolution 

• Higher production is also known as the Technology-Driven Second Green Revolution, a term coined by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Finance Minister Arun Jetley
• A Rs. 500 crore price stabilization fund has been established to assist farmers in dealing with volatility. A TV channel has also been established to provide farmers with information on water conservation, organic farming, and other new techniques.

Ever-Green Revolution 

• Ever Green Revolution: primarily focuses on overall agricultural production, began in the 11th five-year plan. 
• M.S Swaminathan is widely regarded as the “Father of the Ever Green Revolution” in India, who emphasized the importance of increasing productivity in order to exist and last long while minimizing environmental and social harm

Green Revolution

•  During this time, advanced technologies were introduced and implemented to the agriculture sector, and agricultural productivity increased globally
• Dr. Norman Borlaug is known as the “Father of the Green Revolution.” This Revolution’s ultimate motive was to save a billion people from starvation.

White Revolution

• Verghese Kurien, also known as the Milk Man of India, is the founder of the White Revolution, which focuses primarily on milk and dairy products
• The White Revolution is a legendary success story of the country’s dairy cooperative movement
• The Indian government launched the Operation Flood Program with international assistance.

Yellow Revolution

• Oilseed Production (Especially Mustard and Sunflower). The name of Yellow Revolution’s Father is Sam Pitroda
• The main contributors of this revolution are oil seed production technology, price and market intervention support policy, area under oilseed expansion, and institutional support. 

Brown Revolution

• Materials such as Leather/Cocoa/Non-Traditional Products are a part of Brown Revolution 
• It happened and started off in Visakhapatnam’s tribal areas
• To meet the demands, tribal people are being educated on how to grow environmentally friendly and socially responsible coffee.

Golden Revolution

• Fruits, honey production, and horticulture development are all part of the Golden Revolution
• The man behind the Golden Revolution was Nirpakh Tutej, also known as the “Father of the Golden Revolution”
• Because of the great hike in the production of fruits, honey, and horticulture products between 1993 and 2003, the period is known as the Golden Revolution.

Pink Revolution

• Durgesh Patel was the man behind the Pink Revolution, also known as the “Father of the Pink Revolution” 
• Its focuses is on increasing pharmaceutical, onion, and prawn production in India
• As a result, candidates can go through this table and be up-to-date on all the agricultural revolutions that have been coined by famous people.

Black Revolution

• To boost petroleum output, the government intended to boost ethanol production and blend it with gasoline to make biodiesel
• Ethanol is a sustainable energy source that is created as a by-product of sugar extraction from molasses
• Blending ethanol with transportation fuels would give higher returns to farmers, augment scarce hydrocarbon supplies, and be environmentally benign by decreasing emissions by assisting combustion.

Grey Revolution

• Increased fertiliser output is linked to the grey revolution
• It is mostly concerned with the negative consequences of India’s green revolution, namely what might occur if modern agricultural technology is used incorrectly.

Conclusion

The term “agricultural revolution” refers to major changes in agriculture brought about by innovations, discoveries, or new technology. These revolutions alter industrial methods and enhance output rates. Several agricultural revolutions have occurred in India, signalling the start of an entirely new age in agriculture. Indian agriculture grew enormously as a result of the agricultural revolutions, which opened up new prospects.
