Farming Energy
Using 3 Percent
Of National Total
The nation's farmers are
attempting to reduce total
consumption of energy both
is a cost-cutting and an
:nergy-conserving measure.
Their success may
lelp cut farming costs but it
vill do little to reduce the
lation's total energy retirement.
The reason is simple.
Agriculture uses ohly about
I per cent of the total energy
■equired by the nation. Any
•eduction by farmers would
rnly be a "drop in the
jucket."
North Carolina uses about
tj6 million gallons of diesel
fuel, 632 million cubic feet of
natural gas and 143 million
gallons of LP gas, plus
various amounts of electricity,
fuel oil and coal, in
agricultural production.
Flue-cured tobacco uses
about 42 per cent of the fossil
energy used in North
Carolina agricultural production,
followed distantly
by corn and soybeans,
according to North Carolina
State University extension
economists.
Nationally, the largest
users of fossil ^energy are
corn, winter wheat, cotton,
soybeans and alfalfa, in that
order. Together these commodities
account for over
half of the total farm energy
usage.
The most energy -intensive
crops (requiring the
most energy per acre or unit
of production) was flue-cured
tobacco, citrus crops,
shade tobacco, apples and
peaches, in that order.
Of the total amount of
energy used in production
agriculture in the U.S. 30 per
cent is used for field
machinery, 25 per cent for
transportation, 20 per cent
for irrigation, 12 per cent
for livestock, dairy and
poultry production, 8 per
cent for crop drying and 5
per cent for miscellaneous
uses.
