Swaminathan

Early Life – MS Swaminathan:

Born in Kumbakonam, Madras Presidency, on August 7th, 1925, Swaminathan was the second son of M.K. Sambasivan, a general surgeon, and Parvati Thangammal Sambasivan.

After witnessing the devastating effects of the Bengal famine of 1943 during the Second World War, Swaminathan felt compelled to dedicate his life to ensuring India’s food security. Despite his family’s background in medicine and engineering, he chose to pursue agriculture.

In 1944, he graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Science from the University of Madras. He then furthered his studies at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI) in New Delhi, focusing on genetics and plant breeding, where he excelled and earned a post-graduate degree with distinction in cytogenetics in 1949. Subsequently, in 1950, he pursued advanced studies at the Plant Breeding Institute of the University of Cambridge School of Agriculture, culminating in a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1952.
