RSPH Commencement Speaker - Dr. Norman E. Borlaug Dr. Borlaug is the recipient of the 1970 Nobel Peace Prize for his work in India and Pakistan where he promoted a "green revolution in agriculture." He is credited with helping to develop high-yield, low-pesticide dwarf wheat, which supplies a large portion of the world's population with its basic sustenance. He has been a researcher and professor at the University of Minnesota and Cornell University and is the recipient of over 35 honorary degrees from universities spanning the globe. Dr. Borlaug will receive an honorary degree from Emory University on May 10 and will have the special honor of addressing RSPH graduates the same day. Since 1985 Dr. Borlaug has worked tirelessly as director of The Carter Center's Sasakawa-Global 2000 program to increase crop yields and advise on policies for the transportation, preservation and distribution of food in Africa. Dr. Borlaug has promoted better agriculture techniques; spearheaded the introduction in Ghana of a variety of quality protein maize that includes all the essential amino acids, thereby providing a total diet for infants; and demonstrated the ability to increase yields by two to five times. Largely because of his work, farmers in Ethiopia now grow enough food to feed their country and export to others. The Atlantic Monthly wrote in January 1997: "Perhaps more than anyone else, Borlaug is responsible for the fact that throughout the postwar era, except in sub-Saharan Africa, global food production has expanded faster than the human population, averting the mass starvations that were widely predicted. The form of agriculture Borlaug preaches may have prevented a billion deaths."

Borlaug, Norman E. After completing his primary and secondary education in Cresco, Borlaug enrolled in the University of Minnesota where he studied forestry. Immediately before and immediately after receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in 1937, he worked for the U.S. Forestry Service at stations in Massachusetts and Idaho. Returning to the University of Minnesota to study plant pathology, he received the master's degree in 1939 and the doctorate in 1942. From 1942 to 1944, he was a microbiologist on the staff of the du Pont de Nemours Foundation where he was in charge of research on industrial and agricultural bactericides, fungicides, and preservatives. In 1944 he accepted an appointment as geneticist and plant pathologist assigned the task of organizing and directing the Cooperative Wheat Research and Production Program in Mexico. This program, a joint undertaking by the Mexican government and the Rockefeller Foundation, involved scientific research in genetics, plant breeding, plant pathology, entomology, agronomy, soil science, and cereal technology. Within twenty years he was spectacularly successful in finding a high-yielding short-strawed, disease-resistant wheat. To his scientific goal he soon added that of the practical humanitarian: arranging to put the new cereal strains into extensive production in order to feed the hungry people of the world - and thus providing, as he says, "a temporary success in man's war against hunger and deprivation," a breathing space in which to deal with the "Population Monster" and the subsequent environmental and social ills that too often lead to conflict between men and between nations. Statistics on the vast acreage planted with the new wheat and on the revolutionary yields harvested in Mexico, India, and Pakistan are given in the presentation speech by Mrs. Lionaes and in the Nobel lecture by Dr. Borlaug. Well advanced, also, is the use of the new wheat in six Latin American countries, six in the Near and Middle East, several in Africa.

Borlaug, Norman Né à Cresco dans l'Iowa, il étudie la sylviculture puis la pathologie végétale à l’Université du Minnesota. En 1944, il est nommé directeur du Programme coopératif pour la recherche et la production du blé, au Mexique. Avec une équipe internationale de scientifiques, il développe des variétés de blé à rendement élevé et résistantes aux maladies, utilisées avec succès en Asie du sud et ailleurs. Il forme également des centaines de jeunes scientifiques de pays différents. Son prix Nobel lui est conféré en 1970 en reconnaissance de son importante contribution à la «Révolution verte», projet qu’il décrit comme «un succès temporaire dans la guerre contre la faim et la privation». C’est un scientifique engagé et un humanitaire pratique qui reconnaît l’impossibilité de construire la paix le ventre creux.

Nobel PEACE Prize Winners Borlaug, Norman Ernest Borlaug, Norman Ernest (b. March 25, 1914, Cresco, Iowa, U.S.), American agricultural scientist, plant pathologist, and winner of the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1970. He was one of those who laid the groundwork of the so-called Green Revolution, the agricultural technological advance that promised to alleviate world hunger. He studied plant biology and forestry at the University of Minnesota and earned a Ph.D. in plant pathology there in 1941. From 1944 to 1960 he served as research scientist at the Rockefeller Foundation's Cooperative Mexican Agricultural Program in Mexico. At a research station at Campo Atizapan he developed strains of grain that dramatically increased crop yields. Wheat production in Mexico multiplied threefold in the time that he worked with the Mexican government; "dwarf" wheat imported in the mid-1960s was responsible for a 60 percent increase in harvests in Pakistan and India. He also created a wheat-rye hybrid known as triticale. Borlaug served as director of the Inter-American Food Crop Program (1960-63) and as director of the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center, Mexico City, from 1964 to 1979. In constant demand as a consultant, Borlaug has served on numerous committees and advisory panels on agriculture, population control, and renewable resources.

38. Reason Magazine -- April 2000, Billions Served: Norman Borlaug Interviewed By Ro Three decades after he launched the Green Revolution, agronomist norman Borlaugis still fighting world hungerand the doomsayers who say it s a lost cause. http://reason.com/0004/fe.rb.billions.html

R EASON * April 2000 Billions Served Three decades after he launched the Green Revolution, agronomist Norman Borlaug is still fighting world hungerand the doomsayers who say it's a lost cause. Interviewed by Ronald Bailey Who? Norman Borlaug, the father of the "Green Revolution," the dramatic improvement in agricultural productivity that swept the globe in the 1960s. Borlaug grew up on a small farm in Iowa and graduated from the University of Minnesota, where he studied forestry and plant pathology, in the 1930s. In 1944, the Rockefeller Foundation invited him to work on a project to boost wheat production in Mexico. At the time Mexico was importing a good share of its grain. Borlaug and his staff in Mexico spent nearly 20 years breeding the high-yield dwarf wheat that sparked the Green Revolution, the transformation that forestalled the mass starvation predicted by neo-Malthusians. In the late 1960s, most experts were speaking of imminent global famines in which billions would perish. "The battle to feed all of humanity is over," biologist Paul Ehrlich famously wrote in his 1968 bestseller The Population Bomb. "In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now." Ehrlich also said, "I have yet to meet anyone familiar with the situation who thinks India will be self-sufficient in food by 1971." He insisted that "India couldn't possibly feed two hundred million more people by 1980." But Borlaug and his team were already engaged in the kind of crash program that Ehrlich declared wouldn't work. Their dwarf wheat varieties resisted a wide spectrum of plant pests and diseases and produced two to three times more grain than the traditional varieties. In 1965, they had begun a massive campaign to ship the miracle wheat to Pakistan and India and teach local farmers how to cultivate it properly. By 1968, when Ehrlich's book appeared, the U.S. Agency for International Development had already hailed Borlaug's achievement as a "Green Revolution."

Continuous news, views, and abuse by the Reason staff Main March 24, 2004 Truly Great Man Turns 90 The man who saved more human lives than any other person in all of history, Norman Borlaug , turns 90 tomorrow. Borlaug, the father of the "Green Revolution" headed up the team of researchers that created the high-yielding varieties of wheat and rice which prevented the global famines widely predicted to occur in the 1970s and 1980s. Borlaug received the Nobel Peace Prize for his work in 1970. Borlaug continues his work today as head of the Sasakawa Africa Association, which is working to bring a new "Green Revolution" to the poor farmers of Africa. Reason interviewed Borlaug for our April 2000 issue. Happy Birthday Dr. Borlaug! Posted by Ronald Bailey at March 24, 2004 09:37 AM Comments "...the global famines widely predicted to occur in the 1970s and 1980s." I hate to depress, but one must ask, were the predictions accurate? Posted by: Jean Bart on March 24, 2004 09:49 AM If you had included one extra word in the phrase you quoted, you would have already had the answer from the people to whom you're addressing the question. "... prevented the global famines widely predicted to occur in the 1970s and 1980s."
