The IRRI Pioneer Interviews New! Rice Today is publishing edited excerpts in the magazine from selected
interviews with the pioneers of rice research. As one of the activities
to commemorate IRRI’s 50th, we have already logged around 70 hours in
conversation with more than 35 pioneers (with many more planned), ranging from
those who first roamed the rice plots with IRRI’s first director general Robert
F. Chandler, Jr., to others recently retired. Through 2010, Rice Today will be featuring some
interview excerpts with occasional full edited transcripts and video
highlights here on the Web site.
