And Borlaug was exactly right. Agricultural success is dependent on the stability of the farm land- the farmer’s rights, and the national stability to ensure those rights. It was interesting they mentioned how the Green Revolution hadn’t made it to Africa. Many of the nations in Africa that need the most agricultural help are also the ones whose governments are the most chaotic or despotic.

Just goes to show how republicans hurt themselves when they reject science.
