Abstract
The regional approach to economic development using small industries is being tested in Brazil. A fundamental limitation on the rate at which development can proceed is imposed by the lack of power. The feasibility of 1) a farmer´s cooperative to produce wood fuel for irrigation use and 2) a compact nuclear power plant to provide power for a small industrial complex is examined.
