D. Blue Revolution

Hint: Norman Ernest Borlaug (March 25, 1914-September 12, 2009) was an American agronomist who led efforts around the world to increase agricultural production significantly.

Complete Answer:
- Norman Ernest Borlaug, an American agricultural scientist, herbal pathologist and 1970 Nobel Peace Prize recipient. Borlaug, regarded as the 'Father of the Green Movement,' helped pave the foundations for technical developments in agriculture that alleviate world hunger.
- The Green Revolution led to increased production of food grains (especially wheat and rice) and was largely due to the introduction of new, high-yielding varieties in developing countries, starting with Borlaug 's work in the mid-20th century.
- He produced a short-stemmed ("dwarf") strain of wheat at a research station at Campo Atizapan that significantly increased crop yields.
- Previously, if chemical fertilisers increased production, taller wheat varieties would crack under the weight of the heads.
- The short-stalked wheat of Borlaug was able to withstand the increased weight of fertilised heads and was a key element in developing countries in the Green Revolution.
- Following Borlaug 's success in Mexico, his assistance was sought by the Indian and Pakistani governments, and Borlaug started his agricultural revolution in Asia with the help of the Rockefeller Foundation and the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
- In the mid-1960s, with India and Pakistan facing food shortages due to rapid population growth, the import of Borlaug's dwarf wheat was responsible for a 60% rise in harvests there, helping both countries to become self-sufficient in agriculture.

The correct answer is option(A) Green Revolution.

Note: It is estimated that his work in developing countries, especially on the Indian subcontinent, has saved as many as one billion people from hunger and death.
