Or just a *Henry Wallace to take the place of Lysenko, someone who believes in Fertilizer,Pesticides and hybrid seeds has the ear and support of Stalin, and avoids 30 years of agricultural pseudoscience in the USSR, at matches close to US crop yield increases over the same period
OK, now I am imagining Henry Wallace himself emigrating to the USSR, rising in the ranks due to hard work and giving practical agronomy advice, then rising even further when Stalin takes a liking to him.
