Abstract: The following experiment is based on the gas emissions (CO, HC, NOx) of a farm tractor with diesel engine. It has been used a laboratory investigation in order to loud the tractor engine and measure the emissions by using Diesel fuel. Then the tractor was used for ploughing a field and the exhaust emissions were measured. According to measurements an estimation of the total emissions produced during field works were made for winter wheat and maize for silage crops under Greek conditions. The results showed that considerable emissions are produced contributing to environmental pollution. CO emissions are much higher than HC and NOx.
