The origins of FAO are indelibly linked to one name: David Lubin, a successful Californian businessman who turned to farming in the 1880s. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the importance of agriculture in the global economy was declining. The problems were far-reaching. On the one hand, farmers were poorly organized. On the other, it was a sector with little prestige which, unlike industry, lacked innovation. To put it more plainly, prestige and wealth were found in sectors such as industry, trade and finance.
