The growth in conservation tillage continues today. In fact, the percentage of no-till acres in the United States grew from 6.0% to 22.6% between 1990 and 2004 as shown in Table 1.6 [Conservation Technology Information Center (CTIC, 2004)]. Conservation tillage was used on more than 40% of all crop acres.

Of energy intensive goods, these costs could escalate quite dramatically before industry adoption of economically oriented countermeasures. This mechanism, coupled with the fact that the economic and technical feasibility of meiny important conservation technologies is yet to be proven, constrains industrial energy conservation. 

Achieve maximum penetration of existing and new energy conservation technologies in as short a period as possible... 

Advanced energy conservation technologies are usually considered high-risk projects by industry since they are normally... 

It would appear, therefore, that the results of industrial energy conservation R D by industry on its own would likely be held proprietary by a few dominant companies whereas Federally cost-shared RD D results would be available to all industries. Government involvement, therefore, enables equitable dissemination of new energy conservation technology.
