N2  - Energy is the driving force in carrying out the daily farm  activities. Whether it is used for consumption or for production,  the productivity of the farm will very much depend on its  availability and supply. The study first look into the farm  consumption pattern, and later analyse any potential flow of the  energy sources at the developed stage of the farm system by  studying the farm energy balance sheet which give a systematic  and synthetic account of energy flows from its origin through  transformation to its final end users. The preliminary result  t h rough survey to the farm and farm account indicates that crop  residues produced are not used for energy purposes though in the  nature they can be utilized as an energy source, and the energy  requirement of the farm is obtained mainly from the petroleum  products, such as gasoline and diesel, from other to the farm and  supplement by wind energy. With the estimated crop yields of 5  t/ha and 4. 1 t/ha for rice and corn respectively, and assumed 25  hectares of land are used for rice production and 5 hectares of  land for corn production, it was found that the crop residues  produced from these two sources are able to play a major role in  farm energy requirement in the future if we assumed the farm  energy requirement re mains constant. Also wind energy can play an  important supplementary role in the farm energy requirement at  the developed stage of the farm production system
