analysis: The text appears to be discussing a long-term plan for economic development in the USSR, focusing on the conception of economic development, the role of scientific and technological progress, and the planning process. It mentions various sectors and industries, such as fuel and power, machine-building, and agro-industrial, but does not provide specific details on natural resources, environment, agriculture, forestry, fishing, or humanitarian aid. The text seems to be more focused on the overall strategy and planning process rather than specific sectors or industries.
