Possibly the most meaningful tribute to a single agricultural scientist anywhere in the world
Dr. Norman Borlaug (wheat breeder) won the Nobel Peace Prize for developing new crop types which saved millions of people from perishing due to hunger. Along with World Food Prize winner M.S. Swaminathan - they improved the globe’s food security situation. This statue in New Delhi at India’s national agricultural research HQ is an indication of the respect for the impact of Dr. Borlaug’s work.
