The Keeney Place

"Through a nostalgic reflection of his Iowa farm upbringing, Professor Keeney takes the reader through his personal and professional journey of understanding the true meaning of agricultural change. Despite earning some of the highest honors bestowed by his profession, Dr. Keeney became increasingly disillusioned with industrial agriculture. Through his leadership at Iowa State University's Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, he regained his confidence in the future of a sustainable agricultural system that will replace today's factory farms"--Publisher's description.
