在最近举行的世界粮食奖获奖者颁奖典礼上，美国国务卿希拉里克林顿赞扬丹尼尔希勒尔博士构想了微灌这一根本性创新，微灌是一种向世界干旱地区的作物输送水的方法。
Hillel’s technology, which involved dripping, trickling and providing continuous feed-irrigation, became the catalyst for a food production revolution in the Middle East. This approach also resulted in better land management and has impacted the lives of millions in more than 30 countries.
“We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Dr. Hillel on this prestigious award for the inspiring work that he has done for the benefit of so many all over the world,” said Max Phua, World Scientific’s executive director.
作为他向科学界传授有关农业系统、生物学和气候变化问题知识的努力的一部分，Hillel 目前正在与 World Scientific 合作出版气候变化和农业生态系统手册，致力于阐明实际和潜在的农艺气候变化的影响，并制定应对这一全球挑战的有效对策。
