dbpedia-owl:abstract	Wes Jackson ist ein US-amerikanischer Biologe. Jackson studierte Biologie und Botanik in Kansas und Genetik an der North Carolina State University. Er war Professor für Biologie an der Kansas Wesleyan und an der California State University in Sacramento. 1976 gründete er das "Land Institute", das hauptsächlich daran forscht, winterfestes, ertragreiches und ökologisch tragfähiges Getreide zu züchten, die Landwirtschaft durch den Einsatz mehrjähriger Nutzpflanzen nachhaltiger zu gestalten, Alternativen für den Einsatz fossiler Brennstoffe in der Landwirtschaft zu finden. Wes Jackson kritisiert die heutige Form der Landwirtschaft, die eine Reduzierung der genetischen Vielfalt, ein Auslaugen des Bodens und eine Zerstörung ländlicher Gegenden zur Folge hat. Seine Vision ist eine nachhaltige Landwirtschaft auf Basis mehrjähriger Pflanzen und alternativer Anbaumethoden. Wes ist Ratsmitglied des Weltzukunftsrats. Wes Jackson (born 1936) is the founder and current president of The Land Institute. He is also a member of the World Future Council. Wes Jackson, né 1936 à Topeka dans le Kansas, est un biologiste américain, connu pour son engagement en faveur de l'environnement. Wes Jackson est récipiendaire du prix Nobel alternatif en 2000.
