Details: Memoirs matter most when they illuminate not only a life, but an era. This is the story of Dr. R. S. Paroda-scientist, institution builder, and one of the primary architects of modern agricultural transformation. Carrying forward the momentum of India’s Green Revolution, Dr. Paroda helped shape agricultural science as a global enterprise. From his early work addressing the persistent challenge of food security to his pioneering efforts in genetic resource conservation, he played a defining role in building the institutions that today strengthen our food systems and nurture new generations of scientists. As Secretary, Department of Agricultural Research and Education (DARE), he articulated India’s first National Agriculture Policy, advancing agriculture beyond production to post production, value chain and toward a resilient and sustainable agriculture, critical for rural prosperity. Presented as an intimate first-person narrative, this memoir is crafted by two distinguished scientists-Dr. Sanjay Kumar and Prof. Arun Tiwari-who bring rare insight to a journey rooted in the belief that no individual succeeds alone. Endorsed by leading global scientific voices, this book offers a visionary look at agriculture in the twenty-first century: one where food security, ecological stewardship, and human dignity are inextricably linked. A must read for those who seek to understand how visionary leadership can shape the future of food-and the future of humanity.
