Abstract | Introduction only: "A Practical Visionary". This is an introduction to J. Russell Smith's "Tree Crops." In it Wendell Berry describes his love of Smith's vision. The idea of perennial vs. annual crops and two-story agriculture are included in the plan. Berry sees Smith's plan as a way to reduce erosion and increase productivity while maintaining small-scale farming. |
