through the preferential local sourcing of necessities and the maintenance of
larger regional inventories—especially of food and fuel. (28) .. It currently

production will plummet and farmers will go bankrupt—unless proactive efforts
are undertaken to reform agriculture to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels."
