First = domestication; second = machines; Green = high-yield seeds.
Do not confuse the Second Agricultural Revolution (industrial tools, 1700s-1800s) with the Green Revolution (high-yield seeds and chemicals, mid-1900s). Both raised output, but with different technologies in different eras.
As mechanisation and railways spread in 1800s Britain, one farmer could feed far more people. Farm workers were no longer all needed, so they moved to the new industrial cities — helping trigger the population boom of DTM Stage 2.
The Second Agricultural Revolution applied Industrial-Revolution tools — mechanisation, crop rotation, and railways — to raise food output enormously. Fewer farmers were needed, freeing workers for cities and helping drive urbanisation and the demographic transition.
