Abstract
Simulation models can be used to examine hypothetical long-term causal pathways. This note describes such a model of the interaction of the agricultural and energy sectors at the national level. The indication is that crude-oil prices could have dramatic effects on the long-term and transient values of modal split, wheat exports, urban land conversion rates, and many other systems variables.
