Post Carbon Fellow Wes Jackson’s work with the Land Institute on perennial grains was featured in this op-ed at the Williams Lake Tribune.

From the article:

Jackson and his associates undertook a brave set of experiments. I believe at the time the Russians were also doing far out research on this same topic: creating perennial grains to make it unnecessary to cultivate the land every year to grow as we do now the annual grains in order to feed people and livestock.
