[UPSC CSE WHY @CseWhy]

You owe him but do you know him?

This is story of a Karmayogi IPS Officer
This is story of Monkombu Sambasivan

Uh? Who's that?🤔

A man who freed India from the clutches of PL-480.
A man who added a lot to GS3 syllabus.

You guessed it right. This is a story of legendary MS Swaminathan
Monkombu Sambasivan Swaminathan

An Indian 'farmer' who changed agriculture from his lab

The father of Indian Green Revolution, a revolution that was a survival strategy🙃

How did it all start?🤔

He was supposed to follow his father into medical profession.

The year was 1942 & Angrezo, Bharat Chhodo! was a final call by Gandhi

Around the same time, Bengal saw a man-made famine killing 20-30 lac Indians

Man-made because Britishers directed grains meant for Indians to its soldiers from its colonies

Seeing all of this, Young MS asked himself👇🏼
"What can I do for the independent India?"

Inspired by Gandhi and dismayed at Bengal Famine, he set out to study agriculture.

He left his father's profession to study genetics.

This decision took him to some top colleges & labs of the world & became father of Green Revolution.

What actually was the Green Revolution?

In simpler words, GR took agriculture towards industrialization with:
• HYV seeds
• Supreme irrigation facility
• Mechanization of farm with tractors

Before we study more, it is important to know the real reason as to:

1. Why did we have to rely on PL-480, a substandard wheat type, from the US?

2. How's it that India with the same land could not produce enough rice/wheat for Indians?

The answer to both is below👇🏼

India's traditional wheat and rice were tall BUT slender.

As a result, these fell flat on the ground leading to a poor yield.

The first solution that MS set out for was to reduce size of the plant height.

It did not come out to be feasible.
MS was now on a lookout away from India.

He started dialing his fellow researchers abroad.

One thing led to another and he was on a hot-line with Norman Borlaug.

The Norman Borlaug, the guy from Mexico

Thus dwarf wheat hit the Indian soil and what followed was a wheat revolution

This saw India producing 17 million ton wheat in 1968 from a mere 6 million ton in 1947.

What happened next?

MS made a prediction👇🏼
MS was visionary, like Oppenheimer🧪

Just like Oppenheimer, MS also predicted negatives of Green Revolution:

• Intensive cultivation of land with no soil conservation (could) lead to springing up of deserts.
• Indiscriminate pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides use is inevitable
• Raised levels of unscientific tapping of underground water
• Vast Local varieties replaced with 1-2 HYV strains

As he left the earth for one final journey, his legacy remains.

It is essential to learn from legacy stories of such great men. Serves two purposes:

One, acquaints you with #UPSC syllabus
Two, keeps you motivated for stressful prep journey
