Despite efforts by the central and state governments, India remains home to the largest number of malnourished children and adults in the world. Authored by M. S. Swaminathan, a world scientist of rare distinction, this book holistically considers the problem of food production in India. Arguing for the use of environmentally sustainable agriculture-referred to as the evergreen revolution-this compilation addresses a number of ways to attain a hunger-free India, such as monsoon management, safeguarding biological diversity, and food security.
