Man's Survival, From The Time Of Adam

The Forgotten World Is Made Up Primarily Of The Developing Nations, Where Most Of The People, Comprising More Than Fifty Percent Of The Total World Population, Live In Poverty, With Hunger As A Constant Companion And Fear Of Famine A Continual Menace.

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

Some Of The Environmental Lobbyists Of The Western Nations Are The Salt Of The Earth, But Many Of Them Are Elitists. They Have Never Experienced The Physical Sensation Of Hunger. They Do Their Lobbying From Comfortable Office Suites In Washington Or Brussels. If They Lived Just One Month Amid The Misery Of The Developing World, As I Have For Fifty Years, They Would Be Crying Out For Tractors, And Fertilizer, And Irrigation Canals, And Be Outraged That Fashionable Elitists Back Home Were Trying To Deny Them These Things.

There Are No Miracles In Agricultural Production.

Yet Food Is Something That Is Taken For Granted By Most World Leaders Despite The Fact That More Than Half Of The Population Of The World Is Hungry.
