U.S. Agriculture
And World Affairs
Wheat geneticist Norman
Borlaug, winner of the Nobel
Peace Prize, summed up the
relationship between
agriculture and foreign
affairs concisely and well
when he said, “There can be
no peace on earth until every
man has a full belly."
The fact that the United
States is the world’s leading
supplier of a wide range of
farm commodities the world
wants gives us a powerful
hand in foreign affairs.
Food, most of it produced
by American farmers,
helped the free world
recover from the devastation
of World War 11. For years,
U.S. agricultural production
fed hundreds of millions of
people, first under the
Marshall Plan and later
under Public Law 480 (the
Food for Peace law), as
governments were stabilized
and economies were rebuilt.
Dozens of countries that
once were primarily
recipients of U.S. food aid
have become full-fleged
trading partners. The most
notable countries are those
of Europe and Japan. Long
term trade with these
nations has helped to cement
relationships, com
plementing efforts to work
for a more peaceful world.
The productivity of
American agriculture and its
dependability as a supplier
of food and feed has played a
major role in the easing of
tensions in more recent
times between the United
States and the nations of
eastern Europe and the
Peoples’ Republic of China.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 24,1975-
Far and away the bulk of
the trade in recent years
between the United States
and the Soviet Union has
been agricultural trade. The
United States and the Soviet
Union have entered into an
agreement for the exchange
of agricultural research and
technical information that is
already being extensively
implemented by technicians
and economic specialists of
the two countries.
It is also agriculture that
has dominated trade bet-

Both China and the Soviet

This trade continues
