    The EPA reports about ~18% of emissions coming from agriculture in the US. The largest producer is, you guessed it, energy generation (I think, don't have the sources on hand).

Here you go. Actually in 2012 only 10% of emissions came from agriculture, whereas electricity & transportation combined make up 60%.
