Summary:

The paper presents the possibilities of growing energetistic plants and its ecological and economic effects anticipated. Emphasized is the potential contained in infrastructure of Polish countryside, i.e. unutilized farm buildings, areas out of agricul¬tural production, unma-naged side-crops and free manpower. Listed are plants to be designed for energetistic purpos-es and and ways of their utilization. Potential advantages of using liquid wastes for irrigation of the energetistic plants, as well as impediments involved, have been pointed to. The ways of the countryside deve¬lopment described call for engagement of local self-government communities and adequate financial means
