The Green Revolution is often discussed through gains in wheat and rice production, but I’m trying to understand its effects beyond total output. Did the shift toward high-yield crops and new farming inputs change what farmers grew in different parts of India?

I’m also curious whether the benefits were concentrated in particular regions or among farmers with better access to irrigation, credit, and equipment. How do historians and agricultural researchers assess its longer-term effects on regional crop diversity and rural inequality?
