• (B) is the reason for (A).

• (A) is true but (B) is false.

• (A) and (B) are independent of each other.

Answer 1

(A) is true but (B) is false.

Explanation:

The introduction of HYV seeds was a key step in the Green Revolution, drastically increasing crop yields in current agricultural zones. However, these seeds did not make farming practicable in non-arable or barren terrain; instead, they needed pre-existing, fertile fields with heavy irrigation, chemical fertilisers, and precise pesticide management to survive.
