Top Tweets for #DwarfVarieties
#GreenRevolution failed to measure the food & nutrition sacrificed by destroying biodiversity & mixed farming . By focusing only on grain , it failed to measure loss of food for animals & soil organisms by decreasing straw in Borlaug’s #DwarfVarieties. Yield is not total output
The legend of India’s Green Revolution claims:
1) India faced a food crisis, with farms mired in tradition unable to feed an exploding population;
2) Borlaug’s wheat seeds led to record harvests from 1968 on.
Recent research shows both claims are FALSE❌ https://t.co/flGaMIMLqJ
#GreenRevolution was a massive biopiracy of our seeds & imposition of chemical monocultures of #dwarfvarieties Our indigenous wheats & rices are bred for nutrition & taste & also food for soil organisms & animals. #Gates is now grabbing our seeds

India was incapable of feeding itself until Norman Borlaug saved the starving with his Green Revolution. He saved a billion lives, right?
Wrong. "The new histories lead us to revise the number of lives saved from a billion to a lower number. Like zero." https://t.co/oYkEtWikiS
