EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic print from 1962, we see Nikita Khrushchev, the leader of the Soviet Union at that time, accompanied by a group of influential figures on a visit to the scientific-experimental base Lenin Hills. The base was part of the Institute of Genetics belonging to the Academy of Sciences in the USSR. Khrushchev is seen at the center, with Anastas Mikoyan and Mikhail Suslov standing behind him on his left side. On his left stands Trofim Lysenko wearing a cap. The image captures an important moment in Soviet history when agriculture and grain production were key priorities for Khrushchev's government. As he led efforts to modernize and improve agricultural practices across Russia, visits like these were crucial for assessing progress and gaining insights into scientific advancements. This photograph not only showcases political leaders but also highlights their interest in science and genetics as tools for advancing agricultural productivity. It reflects a time when politics intertwined closely with scientific research in pursuit of national goals. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how different aspects such as politics, science, agriculture intersected during one of history's most significant periods - the Cold War era.
