I wrote a book for the United Nations University, “The Violence of
the Green Revolution,” which has been republished by many publishers
globally, including the Kentucky University Press. Extracts from the
book are available on Google.





My study was reinforced by the study done by Dr. Jatindar Bajaj, with
whom I did MSc Hons in Physics from Punjab University in 1973. His
study comparing pre and post Green Revolution performance showed that
the rate of growth of aggregate crop production was higher in the years
before the Green Revolution was introduced (1967-68) than after it.
