India’s farm “revolutions” are named by a colour linked to the product whose output each drive raised.
(A) White Revolution — this matches (III) Milk. Milk is white; Operation Flood, led by Verghese Kurien from 1970, made India the largest milk producer in the world.
(B) Grey Revolution — this matches (II) Fertilisers. It refers to the rise in the production and use of fertilisers, which went with the Green Revolution.
(C) Blue Revolution — this matches (I) Fish. Blue stands for water; it is the growth of fisheries and aquaculture.
(D) Silver Revolution — this matches (IV) Egg. It is the rise in egg and poultry production, named after the colour of the eggshell.
