Idaho economist envisions farmers as fuel and food producers
Dr Richard Schermerhorn of the University of Idaho argues that farmers may be asked to supply motor fuel alongside groceries as energy crises spur industrial use of agricultural products. He notes Brazil’s plan to produce sugar cane through 1980, and cites milkweed for plastics. He warns export demand shifts and population growth creating new markets by 2020, with Idaho potentially expanding irrigated land to meet food needs.
