Answer: (c)

The growth, development and adoption of new varieties of oilseeds and complementary technologies nearly doubled oilseeds production from 12.6 mt in 1987-88 to 24.4 mt in 1996-97, catalyzed by the Technology Mission on Oilseeds, brought about the Yellow Revolution. The oilseeds production scenario in India has witnessed a dramatic turn.

The country achieved a status of ‘self-sufficient and net exporter’ during the early nineties, rising from the ‘net importer’ state, with a mere annual production of nearly 11 million tonnes from the annual oilseed crops, until the year 1986-87.

In a span of just a decade, an all-time record oilseeds production of 25 million tonnes from annual oilseed crops was attained during 1996,97. This transformation has been termed "The Yellow Revolution".
