Energy : direct consumption and production by territorial entrepreneurs (EDT) and farm equipment-use cooperatives (Cuma)
Primeur N° 261
Domestic fuel accounts for 83% of energy needs in 2009
The most frequently used fuels to supply farm equipment by the Cuma and the EDT are home-heating oil and diesel. Nearly 90% of total energy purchases are made by the EDT, which run the machinery themselves, whereas fuel to run the equipment used by the Cuma is generally supplied by the users.
