This might be a double definition.

'opposes' is the first definition.
(bucking is a kind of opposing)

'greens' is the second definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bucks that I've seen before include "Dollars" , "dandies" , "Goes against" , "young men" , "Resists" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
