Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

Assertion: Green Revolution alone was not sufficient to meet the food demands of the continuously growing human population.

Reason: Green Revolution greatly increased food production (about tripled the food supply).

However, despite this increase, population growth continued, so additional approaches such as biotechnology and genetic engineering became necessary.
