How was hyv acknowledged by the indian government

Introduction of high yielding variety seeds, or also referred as HYV was an important step during the Green Revolution in India. During the Green Revolution, Indian agriculture became industrial system due to adoption of new technologies, tools and source materials, like HYV.

Indian government supported this process, meanwhile it did not have funding to run it on its own. In particular, methods that came with the Green Revolution were first introduced in Punjab with the help of international donor agencies in the 1960s. Government, also supported small farmers that could not afford to purchase HYV seeds.
