Golden Revolution 
The Golden Revolution was 
the period between 1991- 
2003. During this time 
there was a big increase in 
horticulture production, 
which means there was 
more production of fruits, 
vegetables, and other 
horticulture products like 
honey and flowers.
Significances In Agriculture 
Fruit and vegetables are important 
supplements to the human diet. 
The cultivation of horticultural 
crops plays a vital role in the 
prosperity of 
a nation and is directly linked with the 
health and happiness of the people 
by improving the income of as such 
they generate lot of employment 
opportunities for the rural people. 
India has made a fairly good 
progress on the Horticulture Map of 
the world 
with a total annual production of the 
Horticulture Crops touching over 149 
Million MT.
Status 
India is the second largest 
producer of fruit and vegetables 
in the world 
(AP -18.5 Million MT-12% share) 
India has been bestowed with 
wide range of climate and physio-geographical 
conditions and as 
such is most suitable for growing 
various 
kinds of Horticultural crops such 
as fruit, vegetables, flowers, nuts, 
spices 
and plantation crops (coconut, 
cashew nut and cocoa).
White Revolution 
This white revolution or operation 
flood relates to the rapid development 
in milk production that took place in 
India after mid 1960's. This name is a 
variation of the name "Green 
Revolution" used earlier to describe 
rapid development in agricultural 
production in India. 
A name closely associated with White 
Revolution is that of Dr. Verghese 
Kurien. This is because the origins of 
White Revolution can be traced to the 
efforts of Dr. Kurien at Kaira District 
Co-operative Milk Producers Union 
Situated at Anand in Gujarat State. This 
organization is better known by the 
brand name of its product - Amul.
Father Of White 
Revolution 
Dr. Verghese Kurien is the 
man behind the success of 
Amul. He is called the “father 
of the white revolution” in 
India. He is also known as 
the Milkman of India. 
Kurien, set up the Anand 
model of cooperative dairy 
development, engineered 
the White Revolution in 
India, and made India the 
largest milk producer in the 
world.
Its Impact 
This is a revolution like no other in the world. Operation Flood or The White 
Revolution as it is known in India has over the past five decades produced a 
constantly increasing sustainable flood of milk in India. It was of high quality 
and available in most parts of both urban and rural India. It helped transform 
the lives of more than 13.4 million farmers and increasing, most of them poor. 
Of them, 3.7 million were women. It helped women empower themselves and 
their families. Today, the Dairy Cooperative Network includes 177 milk 
unions. It operates in over 346 districts covering around 1, 28,799 village level 
societies. Today, India is the world’s leading dairying nation. 
Its helps:- 
 Increasing milk production ("a flood of milk") 
 Augment rural incomes 
 Fair prices for consumers 
 Employment of people 
 Increase of economy in the country.
Status 
From the above figure we can conclude that milk 
production is increasing rapidly year by year but it 
is more fast consumed by growing and vast 
population .
Blue Revolution 
Blue Revolution is the water 
equivalent of the green 
revolution and primarily refers 
to the management of water 
resources that can steer 
humanity to achieve drinking 
water and crop irrigation 
security. The aim of the ongoing 
Blue Revolution is to rapidly 
increase fish production in small 
ponds and water bodies, a boon 
to small farmers, the nation's 
nutrition and its gross domestic 
product.
Result 
It has resulted in increase of 
fish production to five 
million tonnes from only six 
lakh tonnes of fish fifty 
years ago. This includes 1.6 
million tonnes of fish from 
freshwater aquaculture. 
Although the yield from 
marine fisheries has 
stagnated, freshwater 
aquaculture is growing at a 
healthy 6 per cent a year.
Significances In Agriculture 
i. Providing food security 
ii. Providing nutrition security 
iii. Providing employment, fishing, 
aquaculture and a host of allied 
activities are a source of livelihood 
to over 14 million people in India 
iv. A major foreign exchange earner. 
v.Blue Revolution has encouraged 
fish farming where farmers rear fish 
in tanks, ponds, or enclosed areas 
under special conditions that 
promote growth, instead of catching 
them from the sea. 
As a result of Blue Revolution, there 
has been a significant increase in the 
amount of fish available.
Status 
Today, India is pushing ahead with 
a Blue Revolution, the rapid 
increase of fish production in small 
ponds and water bodies, a boon to 
small farmers, the nation's 
nutrition and its gross domestic 
product. The Indian fisheries 
sector, which 50 years ago 
produced only 600 000 tonnes of 
fish, today produces 5 million 
tonnes, including 1.6 million tonnes 
from freshwater aquaculture. 
Although the yield from marine 
fisheries has stagnated, freshwater 
aquaculture is growing at a healthy 
6 percent a year.
Yellow 
Revolution 
The oilseeds production scenario in India has witnessed a 
dramatic turn. The country achieved a status of 'self 
sufficient and net exporter during early nineties, rising 
from the 'net importer 'state’, with a mere annual 
production of nearly 11 million tons from the annual 
oilseed crops, until the year 1986,87. In a span of just a 
decade, an all time record oilseeds production of 25 
million tons from annual oilseed crops was attained 
during 1996,97. This transformation has been termed as 
"The Yellow Revolution" and could be primarily 
attributed to the institutional support, particularly the set 
up of the Technology Mission on Oilseeds in 1986.
Area, production and productivity of annual oilseed 
crops in India 
Source: Directorate of Economics & Statistics, 
Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India.
Significances In Agriculture 
• Significant outcome of this 
Mission and other related 
developments included the 
following;- 
• i) the improved oilseeds 
production technology, 
• ii) the expansion in cultivated 
area, 
• iii) the price support policy. 
• Now, India is among the largest 
oil economies in the region/world. 
• The country also occupies a 
distinct position in terms of 
diversity in annual oilseed crops.
Status 
The demand of oilseeds are continuously increasing due to 
increasing of population very rapidly. Oilseeds are consume 
very fast by such a vast population 
So, As major crops, oilseeds meet the country’s needs for edible 
oils. A second yellow revolution is crying need of the hour. Also, 
a technical breakthrough in dry land farming is needed to 
maximize yield, productivity and farm income. Achieving the 
aim of making the country self-sufficient in oilseeds would have 
a great impact on agriculture and the economy and would help 
reduce dependence on foreign markets.
Green Revolution 
The green revolution is 
the significant increase 
in agricultural 
productivity resulting 
from the introduction 
of high - yield varieties 
of grains , use of 
pesticides , and 
improved management 
techniques.
Green Revolution In India 
 In 1965 the present 
government of 
Mrs. Indira Gandhi 
decided to take a major 
step on present 
Agriculture condition . 
 Thus "Green Revolution" 
was applied to the period 
from 1967 to 1978 
basically in 
parts of Punjab and 
Haryana . 
 At this stage the Green 
Revolution was concern 
only with Wheat & Rice .
Father Of Green 
Revolution 
Dr.M S Swaminathan 
from India led the 
Green Revolution as 
the Project Director. 
& 
Dr. Norman Borlaug 
from Mexico supported 
the Green Revolution 
through the 
introduction of high 
yielding variety of 
wheat seeds.
Significances In Agriculture 
The increase in irrigation created 
need of new dams to harness 
monsoon water. 
This in turn boosted industrial 
growth, created jobs and improved 
the quality of life of the people 
This lead to greater grain and rice 
production 
higher food outputs for LDC’s 
Self-sufficiency for some countries 
(Pakistan-wheat exporter, India-11 
m tonnes to 27 m tons from 1965 to 
1972, Mexico- double wheat yields, 
Philippines and Indonesia-rice 
previously imported) 
Planting dates more flexible 
Early maturity, multiple cropping.
Status 
The Green Revolution resulted in a record 
grain output of 131 million tons in 1978-79. 
This established India as one of the world's 
biggest agricultural producer.
