The specific plant would be Hemp, grown for seed and fibre. It can provide food as well as fuel. It is a weed and is a good soil binder, so it can grow just about anywhere.

That is one of many partial solutions. No one thing is going to replace oil, so the mor irons we have in the fire, the better off we are.
