Norman Borlaug Biography - Free Offer by Author

Dear All,

Norman Borlaug's contributions to humanity were of such magnitude that he was probably the greatest man to live in the 20th century.  He only lived nine years into the 21st century and because of what he accomplished in his life he may be the greatest man to live in this century.  You may wish to peruse my dedication to him on his death…."Borlaug the Great!"  and Borlaug: We Need to Remember What Greatness Really Is!

He lived by these five principles.

·         Give your best

·         Believe you can succeed

·         Face adversity squarely

·         Be confident you will find the answers when problems arise

·         Then go out and win some bouts

We in the pesticide manufacturing, distribution and application industries need to pay very real attention as we deal with the activists and the regulatory czars to his view of reality. 

“When he was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 2007. On that occasion he pointed out that between the years 1960 and 2000 the proportion of “the world’s people who felt hunger during some portion of the year had fallen from about 60% to 14%, which still translates into 850 million men, women and children who lack sufficient calories and protein to grow strong and healthy bodies”.   “The battle to ensure food security for hundreds of millions of miserably poor people is far from won”. 

Norman Borlaug has been one of my own personal heroes for many years. His goal was not fame  His concern was for the poorest starving and suffering people of the world.  He believed that you cannot have peace with starvation. 

Unlike so many well known celebrities and politicians, his passing will not be remembered year after year by the public; a public for which he worked unfailingly, unselfishly up until the day he died.  Among his last words were; "Don't relax. Rust never sleeps."

Best wishes, to all,

Today Noel Vietmeyer, author of Our Daily Bread: the Essential Norman Borlaug, sent a message that would be hard for anyone to pass up-mainly because of the amazing story of what this young farmer eventually accomplished.

***************************************************

The prologue of the book reads: 

"Norman Borlaug grew up hungry; he grew up poor; he only wanted to be a forester.  After creating super-productive food crop varieties he donated their seeds to the world and saved hundreds of millions from starvation.  He is our age's humanitarian hero.

As a professional at the National Academy of Sciences I often worked with Norm.  His own words, which form this book's backbone, were recorded during discussions over more than twenty years.  

Before he died on September 12, 2009 he saw and approved these quotes-some with a detail or two of correction. - Noel Vietmeyer, Lorton, VA."
