Technology and Public Policy Interaction: The Green Revolution T N Srinivasan, Pavan Katkar |
IN THE 1960s, the new technology of India’s G r e e n R e v o l u t i o n was enthusiastically a d o p t e d w i t h i n a decade by millions of farmers. It was one of the most wellknown examples of technological advancement in agriculture and in 1968, the then\Prime Minister Smt. Indira Gandhi commemorated this success by issuing a postage stamp entitled 'The Wheat Revolution'. As Dr. M.S. Swaminathan, the architect of the Green Revolution puts it: “The scientific and public policy initiatives… [including] interdisciplinary research and international collaboration … led to the green Revolution of the 1960s… [In terms of Public Policy], …assured and remunerative marketing opportunities [held] the key to stimulating and sustaining farmers’ interest in achieving higher productivity and production…[Entirely indigenously designed wheat improvement and production programmes] achieved rapid progress…because [India] could achieve synergy among packages of technology, services and public policies.” (Swaminathan, 2013, emphasis added).
Almost five decades ago, very soon after the New Agricultural Strategy based on HYV was launched, B.S.Minhas and T.N. Srinivasan analyzed it in an article in the January 1966 issue of YOJANA.The then editor of YOJANA was the late H.Y. Sharada Prasad, (affectionately called Shouriby his friends), before he became Information Adviser to Prime Minister Mrs. Gandhi. |
