Agricultural diversification
In the agricultural context, diversification can be regarded as the re-allocation of some of a farm's productive resources, such as land, capital, farm equipment and paid labour, into new activities. These can be new crops or livestock products, value-adding activities, provision of services to other farmers and, particularly in richer countries, non-farming activities such as restaurants and shops. Factors leading to decisions to diversify are many, but include; reducing risk, responding to changing consumer demands or changing government policy, responding to external shocks and, more recently, as a consequence of climate change.

Demerits of Green Revolution:
Poor farmers could not afford HYV seeds, fertilizers and machinery.
Some borrowed and ended up with large debts
HYV seeds need more water and fertilizer, which is expensive
New machinery replaced manual labour leading to unemployment and rural-urban migration
The Green Revolution was limited to rice and wheat only.
Compared to the traditional seeds, the HYV seeds promised to produce much greater amounts of grain on a single plant. As a result, the same piece of land would now produce far larger quantities of food grains than was possible earlier.
