I’d say we’d need to make a bunch of biofuels to fill the immediate shortfall to keep tractors moving but as you say we’ve plenty of really good quality land, water, wind. Lots of chemical and medical processing capability once we have the raw ingredients for medicines etc.
Main medium term issue would be mineral and metal mining and processing as we’re short on that but yeah overall think we’d be basically fine.
