Dung cakes have the lowest calorific value.
The calorific value of food or fuel is the amount of heat energy present that is determined by the complete combustion of a specified quantity at constant pressure and under normal conditions.  The amount of heat released by the combustion of one kilogram of a substance is referred to as its calorific value. The calorific values of the given fuels are as follows:
Dung cakes - 7 kJ/g
Coal - 33 kJ/g
