From Green to Evergreen Revolution: Indian Agriculture: Performance and Challenges

Despite efforts by the central and state governments, India remains home to the largest number of malnourished children and adults in the world. Authored by M. S. Swaminathan, a world scientist of rare distinction, this book holistically considers the problem of food production in India. Arguing for the use of environmentally sustainable agriculture—referred to as the “evergreen revolution”—this compilation addresses a number of ways to attain a hunger-free India, such as monsoon management, safeguarding biological diversity, and food security.
