Abstract: For the world human population to move up from 3 billion in the 1950s to 6 billion at the beginning of the 21st century, agriculture has had to change profoundly. In the tropical area, this deep transformation was that of the Green revolution. But, to welcome on the planet the 3 further billion of humans to come in the next 50 years, we cannot resort to the same means because they are not viable, neither from an ecological nor an economic point of view. We have to devise a new Green revolution, that pollutes as little as possible and allows to reduce poverty. Thus, it will be ?doubly green? because it will combine productivity and ecological, economic and social sustainability.
