  • Title: Green revolution: the way forward.
    Author: Khush GS.
    Journal: Nat Rev Genet; 2001 Oct; 2(10):815-22. PubMed ID: 11584298.
    Abstract:
    The origin of agriculture led to the domestication of many plant species and to the exploitation of natural resources. It took almost 10,000 years for food grain production to reach 1 billion tons, in 1960, and only 40 years to reach 2 billion tons, in 2000. This unprecedented increase, which has been named the 'green revolution', resulted from the creation of genetically improved crop varieties, combined with the application of improved agronomic practices.
