My Blog's Purpose

This Blog's purpose is for my college History class. This blog is for me to inform you of something I believe is very important in the History of Agriculture. Agriculture is a very important part of our lives and this man is a very important part of Agriculture-Norman E. Borlaug. Said to be called "The Father of the Green Revolution", Dr. Borlaug saved millions of lives. He developed a type of wheat that could be grown in great quantities. This wheat is now grown all over the world and helps the less fortunate countries feed their populations.
