I remember honda rice

摘要

The Green Revolution in rice has been documented throughout much of Asia, but few think of Vietnam in the 1960s and 70s as a "Green Revolution country." That's because IR8 arrived at the height of a brutal war that overshadowed an agricultural transformation in the countryside. Rice means life itself in Vietnam, and was used both as a weapon and as a tool for peace. I have strong memories of the war: Huey choppers, mortars, ambushes, and needless deaths. But I also remember Honda Rice.
