Propane Tank

June 2025

Here’s to the farmers who put dairy products on our table. I grew up on a dairy farm so I’ve got a frame of reference, albeit mine is outdated compared to how a lot of dairy farms operate today. Regardless, it’s not a way of life for the faint of heart. Thank you and all farmers for feeding the world.

If you purchase your propane from us, you know what June means. It’s time to lock in your propane price for next season again. We’re keeping the contracting options the same and best of all, the price will be lower this year. Once again last year, the price went up during the winter but if you locked in your price, you saved some money. I recommend that  you do it every year.

If you chose to auto renew your propane contract, it’s completed and you’re locked in. If you want to change something like add more gallons, call your local Premier energy office and we can take care of you. For the folks who like to send in a check with a paper contract, you may have noticed that the return envelope was from Milwaukee. The check goes directly to the bank to allow for faster and more secure processing.

If you don’t receive a contract by the end of June, please give us a call and we’ll send another one out to you.

Thank you for your business.

Crop and weather conditions are aligning for a potentially strong year, making this a season worth investing in. The majority of corn and soybean fields are showing excellent growth and yield potential. However, the consistently high relative humidity over the past few weeks has created ideal conditions, not only for crop development, but also for disease pressure, particularly tar spot. When tar spot reaches 50% severity on the ear leaf during grain fill, yield losses of 20-60 bu/ac have been reported.

I hope everyone had the chance to enjoy the Independence Day holiday with family and friends. Thanks to all of you who called in your orders early and helped minimize the added pressure that the short work week brings. I’d also like to thank all of you who returned your propane contracts by the due date. With a short window of when contracts are mailed to when they are due back, we really appreciate your patience and support. If reading this reminded you that your contract is still sitting on the kitchen table, just pick up the phone and call the energy office nearest to you. Our friendly staff will be glad to take care of you. On behalf of our energy team and everyone at your cooperative, thank you for choosing us to serve your propane needs again this year.

I’m going to start with something most of you don’t want to hear. In 4 months, you will be firing up your furnace for the first time. In 6 months, you’ll be shoveling snow. I’m not suggesting that you should go out and buy that new snow thrower that you’ve had your eye on. However, now is a great time to buy propane for the winter.
