		<description><![CDATA[We have a very active farmers market system in our area and a number of people making a living by growing produce for those markets and some of our grocery stores.  

That cuts down on the field -&gt; market distance which, in some cases, can decrease petroleum used for transport.  (Not in all cases.  A full truck of produce can move a long distance on the fuel used by a pickup/van moving a small amount.)

We&#039;ve also got farmers using electric conversion tractors to work their fields.  Batteries are adequate to let one work about an acre per charge, which is fine when you&#039;re growing a variety of crops and staggering planting rather than using a mono-crop system.]]></description>
