BIRTH OF NOBLE PEAS PRIZE

Botanist Roy Noble had always dreamt of ending world hunger.
After years of research, his hard work paid off. He
developed a strain of peas that would grow virtually
anywhere. It grew fast, kept long without spoiling, and was
more nutritious than even soybeans. He was an instant hero,
world wide.

 

There were awards and parades, and naturally the new strain
of peas was named Noble. After enjoying the fame and fortune
for a while, Roy decided he wanted to do more, so he
established a fund to award a monetary prize each year to
botanists and horticulturists who were making significant
contributions to their fields.

 

Thus was born the famous Noble Peas Prize.
