Nebraska tractor test is reporting fuel consumption during their tests. I don't know if they test that small series tractors.
Yes, I searched for that. Couldn't find a report corresponding to 1025R model.

You may find more info for your specific engine on the Yanmar website.

thanks everyone, I also found a very nice research post / formula by Virginia Tech for helping people with budgeting estimates on fuel consumption. Hope this would be useful for others as well:

I use my tractor 80 to 90 hours a year. I don’t have an exact number because I’ve never kept track but about $200 per year in fuel is my estimate, maybe a little less. That would be at $4 per gallon. It’s really a very small cost for a smaller tractor.

It’s determined by the load: the work being done.

It’s going to be somewhere between fuel consumption at idle (no load) and fuel consumption at full rated horsepower (max. load).

That’s a big swing.

Two different sites list the fuel burn rate at 1.5 gallons per hour. This would be at max rpm. The Yanmar doesn’t list the 3NTV80 so the 82 might be a close match and you need to convert it to gallons.
