Non-road fuel consumption and pollutant emissions FOEN 2008 38 5 > Inventories and operating hours 5.1 Inventories in 2005 Figure 11 shows the distribution of inventories (no. of non-road machines and appliances) for 2005. 60% of the approximately 1.27 million machines and appliances belong to the garden-care/hobbies category, while the second-largest category is agricultural machinery. Construction machinery only accounts for 4% of the overall inventory. With respect to engine type, petrol engines represent the largest proportion of the inventory of non-road machines. Here, the number of 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines in operation is more or less equal. There is also a small number of gas-operated machines (forklifts, etc.) and steam-powered ships. For the latter, the steam is exclusively generated using extra-light heating oil. For the purpose of calculating fuel consumption, this is added to the figure for diesel consumption unless it is reported separately.

A slight reduction in the overall inventory is to be anticipated in the future, primarily as a result of the trend in the use of construction, agricultural and forestry machinery. The main reason why the reduction in the number of agricultural machines is not more pronounced despite the sharp decline in agricultural operations 15 is that old agricultural machines are not disposed of as quickly as other machines. The registration costs for a tractor are very low, and there is therefore no incentive to cancel the registration of an old tractor. Furthermore, there is no shortage of space on (former) agricultural premises, and this means there is not such a pressing need to dispose of old machines.

If we take a look at the inventories by engine type (Fig. 13) we can see that the number of machines/appliances with 4-stroke petrol engines increases, while the number of 2- stroke engines will decrease in the future. The number of diesel engines increased slightly in the past few years, and is expected to remain more or less stable in the near future. 15 The number of agricultural businesses fell by almost a third in the period from 1990 to 2005 (Swiss Federal Statistical Office, 2007).

5.2 Chronological development of inventories from 1980 to 2020<br />
Over the past few years, the total number of non-<strong>road</strong> machines equipped with a combustion<br />
engine has increased due to the trend in the garden-care/hobby appliances<br />
category. A slight reduction in the overall inventory is to be anticipated in the future,<br />
primarily as a result of the trend in the use of construction, agricultural <strong>and</strong> forestry<br />
machinery. The main reason why the reduction in the number of agricultural machines<br />
is not more pronounced despite the sharp decline in agricultural operations 15 is that old<br />
agricultural machines are not disposed of as quickly as other machines. The registration<br />
costs for a tractor are very low, <strong>and</strong> there is therefore no incentive to cancel the registration<br />
of an old tractor. Furthermore, there is no shortage of space on (former) agricultural<br />

If we take a look at the inventories by engine type (Fig. 13) we can see that the number<br />
of machines/appliances with 4-stroke petrol engines increases, while the number of 2-<br />
stroke engines will decrease in the future. The number of diesel engines increased<br />
slightly in the past few years, <strong>and</strong> is expected to remain more or less stable in the near<br />
future.<br />
