This book synthesizes theory and empirical research on the economics of energy in agriculture in order to: present a framework for identification and analysis of energy requirements for agriculture; examine the impacts of energy price increases and supply shortages on the structure of agriculture; and explore the economic feasibility of agriculture as a renewable source of energy production. The work presents many original research findings, including information on energy intensity and factor substitution in agriculture. A series of case studies is included.
