Borlaug was one of only five people to have won the Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal. He was also a recipient of the Padma Vibhushan, India's second-highest civilian honor. Borlaug's discoveries have been estimated to have saved over 245 million lives worldwide."

He's spent most of the past 60 years in the farmlands of Africa, Asia and Mexico fighting world hunger -- and saving, by some estimates, up to 1 billion lives in the process. Borlaug is best known as the father of the "Green Revolution," which describes a dramatic increase in food production that helped avert widespread famine in Asia beginning in the 1960s."
