green revolution The name given to the widespread development of high-yield strains of wheat, corn and rice during the 1960s and early 1970s. It was more formally known as the Indicative World Plan for Agricultural Development. The revolution came after the Food and Agricultural Organization held the World Food Congress in 1963. A "Freedom from Hunger" campaign was set up with the goal of increasing food supplies and solving the world's hunger problems (termin odnosi się do powszechnego wprowadzenia do rolnictwa wysokoplennych odmian pszenicy, kukurydzy i ryżu w latach 1960 i wczesnych 1970; formalnie akcja ta znana jest jako Światowy Program Rozwoju Rolnictwa po Kongresie FAO z 1963 r.) |
