Answer 1

All of these

Explanation:

• The Green Revolution increased inequalities between small and big farmers because small farmers could not afford costly inputs like fertilisers and HYV seeds, benefiting mostly big farmers.
• The use of HYV seeds primarily benefited wheat-growing regions and did not cover many other crops to the same extent.
• HYV crops were also more prone to pest attacks, necessitating increased use of pesticides.
