Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
In India, the peasants of Haryana, Punjab, and Western Uttar Pradesh were the first to come out and experiment with new farming methods. Farmers in these areas dig tube wells for irrigation purposes. They used HYV seeds to boost their productivity. They also used chemical fertilisers and pesticides in farming to ensure crop growth and protection. Most chemical fertilisers are used in Punjab, India. The nation's consumption of chemical fertilisers has grown alongside an increase in agricultural output. Fertiliser usage climbed from 1 million tonnes in the 1960s to 25.6 million tonnes in 2014–15. Agricultural activities in these states helped them to alleviate poverty.
