JustSaiyan · Answer

No, since the crops were both used for feeding the country, and for trade/sales so everyone benefited.

ok

JustSaiyan · Answer

Is that good?

woolyfrog · Answer

yes

woolyfrog · Answer

Analyze whether or not the benefits of the Green Revolution outweigh its risks for less developed nations.

woolyfrog · Answer

what were the risks?

JustSaiyan · Answer

Well, if it were to fail, the countries mass producing this crop would yield tainted crops and would have to start over, which would not only cost more, but would rapidly lower their trade rates. Any number of things could happen. The pesticides might not work, or they could end up poisoning the crops, or it could actually lure in MORE insects instead of warding them off, etc.

Ok thanks. I think they test it maybe? on a single plant and see if it works

JustSaiyan · Answer

That would be smart, although they'd have to test each crop to verify that it will work for all of them.

JustSaiyan · Answer

And of course, there are weather conditions, allergies, etc.

JustSaiyan · Answer

This is like having genetically modified vegetables, it's still a very controversial topic, some think it is great, others are skeptical.
