Agriculture as a Producer and Consumer of Energy
Sponsored by the Farm Foundation and the USDA Office of Energy Policy and New Uses.
Farm Foundation is cooperating with USDA's Office of Energy Policy and New Uses to organize a conference to examine agriculture as a producer and consumer of energy. The conference is designed to collect baseline information, and develop a roadmap to guide private and public policies that will influence future energy consumption and production in agriculture.
The conference will:

  • Provide baseline data on energy use by agriculture that will help USDA staff respond to questions about economic impacts of energy price spikes and/or supply shocks;
  • Provide comprehensive baseline information about agriculture as a producer of energy;
  • Provide USDA with information to improve administration of energy-related programs; and
  • Provide a technology roadmap for agricultural energy consumption and production, including barriers to technological advances, research needs, investment opportunities and economic (price) relationships.
