8,200 ag pump produce over 14,000 tons of emissions per year? Diesel must be heavier when it is burned I guess.

For example, let's burn methane in the presence of oxygen. 16 grams of methane magically become 44 grams of carbon dioxide emissions.
CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O + heat
(16) + (64) --> (44) + (36) grams/mole
