This book was fascinating. I learned so much. It also gave me hope for the future! Highly recommend.

A warning collaboration coming at so many angles of perennial plant growth arranged in the three areas of Forest, Grassland, and Grain with majority emphasis on perennial food production. Critical research (introduced to Wes Jackson ideas in 1984 - so much progress!). Can't thank you all enough. I enjoyed all the "origin" stories of how contributors found this path. Plan to pass on to as many as I can.
