Green
revolution programme was too theoretical and suffered setback due to problems
bordering on finance, input supplies, distribution and inadequate credit to
farmers.

the green revolution failed as few of requisite equipment were supplied by
government. There was also general lack of basic infrastructural facilities in
the rural areas.
