Two social failures from the Green Revolution are:
1. The Green Revolution caused farmers to no longer grow what was needed for the community or what was good for the land. Due to the focus on high-yield crops and monoculture, many farmers shifted away from traditional practices and crops that were sustainable and suited to local diets, leading to a loss of biodiversity and local agricultural knowledge.
2. The Green Revolution raised taxes and created economic hardship for many local farmers. While it aimed to increase food production, the associated costs of new technologies, seeds, and fertilizers often led to increased financial burdens on small farmers, resulting in economic hardship and, in some cases, contributing to debt and land loss.
