Known for his pioneering efforts in the sustainable agriculture movement,
Wes Jackson co-founded the Land Institute, a research and demonstration
center focusing on how we can shift from using monoculture annual grains
(like wheat) to inter-mixed (polyculture) perennial grains. Jackson and his
staff seek to farm in nature's image, with a research agenda based on a
marriage of agriculture and ecology, drawing knowledge from the way the
world has worked for millions of years.
