<P> The Indian government realized that it needed to do many things to win the cooperation of Indian farmers to make the green revolution successful . First, the government had to convince farmers to accept the hybrid varieties that would lead to increased yields .

It also had to train a network of extension agents to train farmers to cultivate their fields with new methods . </P> <P> The government accomplished all this by setting up many new organizations . It set up the Food Corporation to buy food grains from surplus production areas and distribute it in areas with shortages . It constituted an Agricultural Pricing Commission to ensure a minimum floor price to farmers so that there was no disincentive for increased production . Seed and fertilizer corporations were formed to ensure supply of good quality seeds and timely supply of fertilizers, etc . Agricultural scientists were motivated to do their work better by the offer of better pay scales and greater infrastructural facilities . </P> <P> On top of all this the government established 100,000 demonstration plots across the country to prove to the farmers that the hybrid varieties were indeed more productive . </P> <P> The Green Revolution succeeded not only because it was a planned initiative, but also because it was a conscious and well - conceived program .

The planning and awareness exhibited in the project helped create a higher level organization that could harness the enthusiasm and energies of the farmers more effectively . </P>
