'Geopolitics and the Green Revolution' explores why four different countries (USA, India, Britain and Mexico) each sought to develop high-yielding wheat production. National security concerns and management of foreign exchange were prime motivators of the new technologies, a relationship that has not been previously developed in studies of agricultural modernization. Future reform efforts in agriculture will be affected by this history.
