the remarkable increases in agricultural production in punjab, india, during the 'green revolution' of the 1960s and 1970s were largely a result of the introduction of modern, high-yielding crop varieties in the mid-1960s. the study uses data from all the districts of punjab to examine the factors that determined the degree and rate of adoption of the new varieties. the production of wheat, rice, maize, gram, and cotton is analyzed by the techniques of production--crop variety, season of growth, and dry versus irrigated area. farmers' decisions as to the composition and intensity of techniques they chose to adopt are shown to have been based primarily on profitability and the availability of inputs such as cultivatable area, irrigation facilities, and fertilizers. the dynamics of the rapid increase in output are modeled to provide short-run and long-run pictures of the transition process
