Agricultural sector is both energy consumer in the form of human labor, fossil fuels, electricity, seeds, fertilizer, and pesticides and energy producer in the form of food, feed, and biofuels. High agricultural use of energy inputs results in adverse environmental issues such as global climate change, pollution of water, soil and air, and unsustainable agricultural production. In this study, 35 agricultural crops such as cereals, fruits, and vegetables were evaluated in terms of consumption of diesel fuel during their production process including soil preparation, fertilization, sowing, spraying, harvesting and transportation, based on minimum and maximum values reported in related literature. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from diesel consumption can be expressed as total carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq) emissions (2.76 kg per liter). a map showing total CO2eq emissions from diesel consumption for agricultural production. Our estimates showed that minimum and maximum GHG emissions varied between 0.48 and 3.75 Tg CO2eq for wheat, 17.15 and 65.45 Gg CO2eq for chickpea, and 0.088 and 0.153 Tg CO2eq for tomatoes, respectively. In order to reduce diesel-related GHG emissions, there is an urgent need for innovative agricultural practices and technologies to be put into place.

“…These parameters can be used to determine the optimum intensity of land and crop management from an environmental point of view. Energy use efficiency in some agricultural crop productions have been reported as 1.5 for sesame, 2.8 for wheat, 3.8 for maize, 4.8 for cotton (Canakci et al, 2005) and 2.95 and 3.5 for sunflower production in Turkey and Chile, respectively (Uzunoz et al, 2008;Iriarte et al, 2010). Also, average energy productivity of canola production was 0.12 kg MJ À1 .…”

“…The results revealed that, total energy consumption during the production period of canola was 17,786.36 MJ ha À1 , from which human labor, diesel fuel and machinery energies were consumed as 154.79, 985.27 and 4850.65 MJ ha À1 , respectively. In some related studies total energy input has been reported as 25027.47 MJ ha À1 for barley (Mobtaker et al, 2010), 18,931.09 MJ ha À1 for sunflower (Uzunoz et al, 2008), 18680.8 MJ ha À1 for wheat, 14348.9 MJ ha À1 for cotton and 11366.2 MJ ha À1 for maize productions (Canakci et al, 2005). The average canola yield obtained was found to be 2151.94 kg ha À1 ; accordingly, the total energy output was calculated as 53798.46 MJ ha À1 , in the enterprises that were analyzed.…”

The aim of this study was to determine energy consumption pattern and specifically to measure and benchmark the efficiency for white button mushroom production in Alburz province of Iran. The data used in this study were collected by interviewing mushroom producers in the region. In the surveyed farms, average yield and total energy consumption were calculated as around 208.46 kg•ton −1 compost and 133.25 MJ•ton −1 , respectively. The results revealed that fossil fuel (40.43%), compost (30.45%) and electricity (27.42%) consumed the bulk of energy. The results of DEA approach also showed that 12 and 14 farmers had efficiency score of unity. Electricity and fossil fuel were found to be used in excess in target mushroom production farms. Moreover, we came to the conclusion that the total energy consumption can be reduced to 120.15 MJ•ton −1 for mushroom production in which diesel fuel energy (50.89 MJ•ton −1), FYM (37.32 MJ•ton −1) and electricity (30.34 MJ•ton −1) energies were considerably significant.
