What fuel does a tractor use?

Tractors can use a variety of fuels, but the most common are:

* Diesel fuel: This is the most prevalent fuel for tractors due to its efficiency and power output.

* Gasoline: Smaller tractors and lawn tractors often use gasoline.

* Biodiesel: A renewable fuel made from vegetable oils or animal fats, gaining popularity due to its environmental benefits.

* Propane: A clean-burning alternative to diesel and gasoline, used in some newer tractors.

* Electricity: Some tractors, particularly those used for specific tasks like lawn mowing, are now powered by electricity.

The specific fuel used in a tractor depends on its size, age, intended use, and the preferences of the owner.
