Abstract
Dairy farming uses energy in direct form (electricity and fuel) and indirect form (energy for the manufacture of farm machinery, technical equipment and feed concentrate) with the result of greenhouse gas emission. In an analysis conducted, the energy requirement for the production of feed stuff (forage and concentrate) as well as that of the direct energy demands (fuel and electricity) could be determined for two Austrian dairy farms. 
 The results show, that concentrates are more energy-intensive in their production than roughage. Energy-efficient milk production is conducted on low-input dairy farms with high roughage portion and low concentrate portion in the feeding ration.
