Energy Estimator: Nitrogen |
This NRCS energy consumption tool enables you to calculate the cost of nitrogen product use on your farm or ranch. NRCS agronomists have developed these cost estimates based on nitrogen fertilizer management methods for the predominant crops in your state. |
Stefanie Aschmann |
|
Energy Estimator: Tillage |
The tool estimates diesel fuel use and costs in the production of key crops in your area and compares potential energy savings between conventional tillage and alternative tillage systems. The Energy Estimator gives you an idea of the magnitude of diesel fuel savings under different levels of tillage. |

Animal Housing Energy Estimator |
The Energy Estimator for Animal Housing tool is designed to enable you to estimate potential energy savings associated with swine, poultry or dairy cows housing operations on your farm or ranch. This tool evaluates major energy costs in lighting, ventilation and heating costs for swine and poultry. It evaluates major energy costs with lighting air circulation, milk cooling, water heating and milk harvesting costs for typical dairy. |
