THE PLT RPRTD THAT SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF, THE ENG BEGAN TO 'CUT OUT.' HE MOVED THE FUEL SELECTOR TO THE RESERVE TANK & ACTIVATED THE STANDBY FUEL PUMP, BUT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE ENG. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE ACFT WAS DAMAGED AS THE PLT WAS MAKING AN EMERGENCY LANDING IN A DIRT FIELD. THE ENG AND FUEL SYS WERE EXAMINED, BUT NO EVIDENCE OF A PREEXISTING FAILURE WAS FOUND.
