| Abstract: | In this letter, the director of the Institute, Wes Jackson, contrasts the agriculture he sees in a nearby cultivated field versus the agriculture that Americans need to sustain farm land and the human food supply. Jackson suggests that “a new agriculture” is the only way we will improve the quality of our land and increase the reliability of our food supply. |
