Mitigating Rising Fuel and Energy Costs

Farmers can mitigate some effects of rising fuel and energy costs by following a few basic rules, reducing on-farm fuel consumption, prolonging the lifespan of their tractors and other equipment, and protecting the environment. When considering the boosting the bottom line the smallest improvement in efficiency would allow for development.  The top 3 fuel efficiency tips for the agricultural industry:

  • Operation and Maintenance

Ensuring agricultural equipment operates efficiently is vital. One of the easiest ways to achieve fuel efficiency is to service all farm vehicles and other equipment according to the maintenance plan set out in the operator’s manual. Change fuel, oil, and air filters at the advised intervals. Blocked air filters can increase fuel consumption by up to 20%, and dirty fuel injectors can increase it by 10% to 15%.

  • Tyres and Wheel Alignment

Proper Inflation: Ensure tyres are properly inflated and checked regularly to maintain the recommended pressures. This ensures the best traction and lowest rolling resistance.

Impact on Fuel Consumption: Under- or overinflating tyres can significantly affect fuel consumption and tyre lifespan.

  • Engine Care

Look after your tractor’s engines by avoiding labouring them. Refrain from quick starts and minimise idling, as both waste fuel and strain the machines. Even letting an engine idle for just 10 minutes a day can waste a considerable amount of fuel.
