Abstract
On-farm energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important in the context of rising energy costs and concerns over greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Energy inputs represent a major and rapidly increasing cost to the growers around the world. This entry reviews the currently available tools and technologies for conducting on-farm energy audits/assessments. Opportunities to reduce
operational energy inputs and impacts on GHG emissions are also discussed.
