Welcome to Efficient 20
Efficient 20 is designed to encourage farmers and foresters to contribute to reaching the target set by the European Union of 20% energy savings compared to the projections by 2020. The focus is put on fuel oil used in farming machinery, which represents more than 50% of the energy consumed in agricultureMore
Do you know how much fuel you are using?
Research by ÖKL (Österreichisches Kuratorium für Landtechnik und Landentwicklung) based in Vienna shows reference fuel consumption for fodder harvesting on meadow land.
Efficient20 is helping farmers identify where their biggest potential for fuel savings lie.
