NRC News and Occurrences

Well, India, always an agricultural nation has been hit pretty severely by this crisis. Though it is currently unclear of the extent of this crisis, it appears that millions are starving, in fact the majority of the population does not get enough food, and that India, as a whole, is on the brink of mass famine. Famines already a common occurrence before the war, are now a common occurrence. Less than 17% of the nation's farmland is well irrigated, with farmers relying mainly on inconsistent rainfall. Indian farmers face a lack of finance, as well as the horrid weather conditions, and food output clearly is not distributed equally. Before the war wee were not self sufficient, relying on imports from around the world. This cannot continue. But we have a plan for this region our nations share. our best scientists, including agronomist Dr. Norman Borlaug and geneticist M.S. Swaminathan are working on producing seeds that yield more produce, more efficiently. One of the top priorities of our government once it is established will be on a continent wide irrigation plan, and the implementation of chemical fertilizers and pesticides to feed our people. This region needs a revolution. We need a Green Revolution.
