A country that cannot feed itself cannot have self-pride, and in the mid-'60s 20 percent of all the wheat produced in America came into India. We were agriculturally a basket case. And 15 years later, 20 years later, we have become an agricultural power. This is the famous Green Revolution.

Ein Land, das sich nicht selbst ernähren kann, kann nicht selbst stolz sein. Mitte der 1960er Jahre kamen 20 Prozent des in Amerika produzierten Weizens nach Indien. Wir waren landwirtschaftlich ein Korbfall. Und 15 Jahre später, 20 Jahre später, sind wir zu einer Agrarmacht geworden. Dies ist die berühmte Grüne Revolution.
