Answer 1

Answer:

This statement is true

Explanation:

Technologies associated with agriculture systems have greatly enhanced crop yields around the world. An example of this is the "Green revolution" in 1950-1960, where the combination of genetic improvement methodologies with the use of fertilizers was critical for the amazing increase in crop yields, particularly in new varieties of rice and wheat. Indeed, the agronomist who developed some of these high yielding varieties of wheat, Norman Borlaug, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his contribution to the extensive increase in crop production, thereby helping to alleviate world hunger.
