Extract: Whether the "present rate" projection calculates 25 years or 50 years before exhaustion of energy resources, is only a matter of degree in defining the absolute necessity of dealing with economic, social and political stresses of a major transition in energy usage patterns. therefore, this report will not engage extensively in specific data selections, citations and interpretations related to energy sources or usage details. it will address the anticipated impacts of energy related problems on the agriculture and associated enterprises of the Great Plains.
