The man who fed the world...

Share

I am but one member of a vast team made up of many organizations, officials, thousands of scientists, and millions of farmers - mostly small and humble - who for many years have been fighting a quiet, oftentimes losing war on the food production front. Norman Borlaug (1914-2009) The Man who Fed the World / Norman Ernest Borlaug (March 25, 1914 – September 12, 2009). American agronomist, humanitarian, and Nobel laureate, and has been called the father of the Green Revolution. Nobel Peace Prize, Presidential Medal of Freedom, Congressional Gold Medal, recipient of the Padma Vibhushan, India's second-highest civilian honor. Borlaug's discoveries have been estimated to have saved over 245 million lives worldwide.

Therefore I feel that the aforementioned guiding principle must be modified to read: If you desire peace, cultivate justice, but at the same time cultivate the fields to produce more bread; otherwise there will be no peace.
