The 'Second Green Revolution'

'THE next Green Revolution or the Evergreen Revolution [as Dr. Swaminathan calls it] will have to bring about food and nutritional security to the billions in the country but without further damaging the fragile ecosystem.'

The statement above is part of my preface as then-director general of the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (Icrisat) for the report titled 'Second Green Revolution, Growth Engine for Transformation' released in 2011 that discusses the need for another 'revolution' to transform India's food system into one that is resilient and sustainable, benefiting producers and consumers.
