PASSAGE—I No doubt, the ‘green revolution’ has led to self-sufficiency in food production but it has also brought with it the formidable problem of poisoning of food grains and other eatables. This is caused by extessive use of chemicals on crops and pesticide residues. It has also created havoc by exterminating the species of useful parasites and viruses which keep pests under control.

Water is, of course, necessary for animal life, while moisture in the soil is equally imperative for the life and: growth of plants and trees, though the quantity necessarily varies enormously with the species.
