Step-by-step solution

The Green Revolution succeeded in tripling the food supply and it was not enough to feed the growing human population. Increased yields have partly been due to the use of improved crop varieties, but mainly due to the use of better management practices and use of agrochemicals. However, for farmers in the developing world, agrochemicals are often too expensive, and further increase in yield with existing varieties are not possible using conventional breeding.
