520 _aWalking with the Farmer chronicles the history and accomplishments of the first 35 years of the Sasakawa Africa Association (SAA). This is a story of an attempt to change the future of an entire continent and better the lives of millions of people. It is a story of imagination, inspiration, great challenges, enormous projects, occasional stumbles, political setbacks, technological adventures, institutional resets, and a stubborn refusal to ever give up. It began with Japanese philanthropist Ryoichi Sasakawa's ambitious idea to bring together the father of the Green Revolution, Norman Borlaug, and former U.S. President Jimmy Carter to try to tackle the complex, persistent and devastating issue of hunger on the African continent. Author Thomas Hager tells the dynamic human story of SAA's evolution, which is simultaneously the history of agricultural development in Africa.
