Green Revolution – Krishonnati Yojana

The Green Revolution – Krishonnati Yojana is an umbrella intervention that unifies multiple agricultural sub-missions to enhance crop productivity, strengthen farm infrastructure, and secure sustainable livelihoods for farmers.

Why it matters

  • It streamlines administrative oversight by bringing diverse agricultural programs spanning seed development, farm mechanization, extension services, and marketing under a single operational framework.
  • The scheme serves as a central policy vehicle for addressing structural bottlenecks across the entire agricultural value chain to boost farm incomes.
  • It provides an institutional mechanism to align central funding priorities with state-level agricultural execution, promoting sustainable farming practices.

How it is asked

In GS Paper III, UPSC typically examines this umbrella scheme to assess the governance efficiency of integrated agricultural policy versus fragmented departmental schemes. Questions often focus on evaluating specific sub-components like extension services or mechanization in mitigating smallholder vulnerabilities. Candidates are expected to analyze how effectively such administrative rationalization translates into technology adoption and climate resilience at the field level.
