Dr. Jaya Prakash Narayan, MLA & President, Loksatta Party, 4th M.S Swaminathan Award-2011, Hotel Green Park, Begumpet, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh. The prestigious MS Swaminathan Award, which is country’s highest citation for undertaking outstanding work in the field of agriculture, was jointly presented by the Retired Indian Council for Agricultural Research Employees Association (RICAREA) & Nuzivvedu Seeds, India’s leading Seed Company. The community of agricultural scientists will be regarded as greatest benefactor. Two billion people were saved in two generations because of the exceptional work of the interventional scientists. These are some of the wonderful efforts by the spectacular scientists. I appreciate the work done by Dr. N. Shoba Rani, Principal Scientist & Head, Crop Improvement Section, Directorate of Rice Research & Dr. Ramanujam Sai Kumar, Director of Directorate of Maize Research, ICAR for their outstanding performance. Best researches were done at multinational companies. I appeal to the scientists to make national leadership in the country & elsewhere.
