The Industrial Energy Conservation Division of the Department of Energy held a workshop on ''Energy Conservation in Agricultural Production'' on October 31 and November 1, 1977. The two day workshop was planned as a follow-up to a previous workshop on Agricultural Production in July, 1976. Six discussion groups were formed and covered the following subjects: crop production systems, animal production systems, on-farm processes, fertilizers and pesticides, water resources, and use of agricultural by-products. Participants speaking were asked to center their remarks on evaluating and reviewing the projects listed in the July, 1976 report; refining and identifying the areas which require further study; listing the necessary resources for each project; recommending priority rankings; and evaluating the Department of Energy's programs.
