One of the greatest achievements of the 20th century was harnessing agricultural sciences with policy interventions to challenge hunger, poverty and food insecurity in the developing regions of the world. International agricultural research centers, national programs, U.S. Land Grant Universities, government entities, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and the private sector all contributed to enhanced food security in developing regions. It was obvious that this need, combined with vision, determination, commitment and resources, made it possible to tackle these challenges.
