STATEMENT OF AGRICULTURE SECRETARY TOM VILSACK ON THE PASSING OF DR. NORMAL BORLAUG
September 13, 2009
Dr. Norman Borlaug was simply one of the world's best. A determined, dedicated, but humble man who believed we had the collective duty and knowledge to eradicate hunger worldwide. His efforts saved millions of lives and inspired thousands to dedicate their lives to doing the same. The World Food Prize, which he founded, will continue to acknowledge those who carry on the work of providing food to feed the world. Dr. Borlaug will be missed.
