The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- These changes in agriculture initially emerged in developed countries in the early 20th century and subsequently spread globally until the late 1980s.
- In the late 1980s, farmers began incorporating new technologies, including high-yielding varieties of cereals, particularly dwarf wheat and rice, and the widespread use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and controlled irrigation.
- At the same time, newer methods of cultivation, including mechanization, were adopted, often as a package of practices to replace traditional agricultural technology.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Green Revolution article was read about 180,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 83 and blocks with 86: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
