Just converting all the U.S. agricultural waste into oil and gas would yield the energy equivalent of 4 billion barrels of oil annually.

A nice dream but doing it would present quite a number of logistical nightmares.

How so? Think about it. Just about all agricultural products are shipped to a central facility. Milk, corn, wheat, soybeans, etc., all get shipped out.

Now the waste will too.
