The Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) grew out of the international response to widespread concern in the 1950s, ’60s and early ’70s that many developing countries would succumb to hunger. Experts predicted widespread and devastating famine between 1970 and 1985, with hundreds of millions starving to death. Such grim predictions were proved wrong by a combination of connected trends: the reorientation of domestic policies in developing countries that were considered particularly vulnerable, sharply focused research by scientists in these countries, a great effort by farmers, and the impact of international research on tropical agriculture.
