Frequently asked questions
What was the Green Revolution in Pakistan?
The Green Revolution was a period of rapid growth in agricultural output, mainly in the 1960s, driven by high-yielding wheat and rice varieties, chemical fertilisers, tube-well irrigation and mechanisation. It raised food production but also widened gaps between large and small farmers.
How does social change spread in a society?
Sociologists explain that new traits appear in a society mainly through discovery, invention and diffusion, the spread of ideas and practices from one group or culture to another. Media, migration, education and trade all speed up this process.
