"Civilization as it is known today could not have evolved, nor can it survive, without an adequate food supply."

Food

Norman Borlaug

Norman Borlaug

Food

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"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."

Food

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"During the past three years spectacular progress has been made in increasing wheat, rice, and maize production in several of the most populous developing countries of southern Asia, where widespread famine appeared inevitable only five years ago."

Progress

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"Cereal production in the rain-fed areas still remains relatively unaffected by the impact of the green revolution, but significant change and progress are now becoming evident in several countries."

Change

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"Plant diseases, drought, desolation, despair were recurrent catastrophes during the ages - and the ancient remedies: supplications to supernatural spirits or gods."

God

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"Man's survival, from the time of Adam and Eve until the invention of agriculture, must have been precarious because of his inability to ensure his food supply."

Food

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"Nevertheless, the number of farmers, small as well as large, who are adopting the new seeds and new technology is increasing very rapidly, and the increase in numbers during the past three years has been phenomenal."

Technology

Quote_1.png
Norman Borlaug
"There are no miracles in agricultural production."
