Prof M S Swaminathan,

A plant geneticist, agronomist, agricultural scientist,

An advocate of sustainable agriculture,

A proponent of the use of technology in general, and geospatial in particular,

With a caution “not to worship technology, but the outcome one desires”,

And a key architect of India’s ‘green revolution’

Who also warned against ‘greed revolution’ A

nd introduced the vision of ‘evergreen revolution’.

Prof Swaminathan’s contributions have transformed the lives of millions.

And we join millions to remember him.
