Extract

The people of the world required from the dawn of time until 1830 to reach a population of 1 billion. By 1960, we reached 3 billion and by 1980 we had a population of about 4 billion. It is estimated that by the year 2000 there will be 7 billion people in the world. Just 30 yr from now the world's population will have doubled. This means that within the next 30 yr we must produce as much food as we have produced since the beginning of history. Can we feed this many people? Yes, but expanded research to develop improved technology will be required to meet the challenge.
