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 I grew up on a dairy farm so I’ve got a frame of reference, albeit mine is outdated compared to how a lot of dairy farms operate today.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.

I hope you were able to enjoy Thanksgiving with family and friends. And I hope you’ve recovered from your food coma. For the 10 of you (including my mom) who read my newsletter, you’ve seen how I’ve been promoting propane gas appliances and the available rebates. A couple of years ago, I was invited to attend a webinar and the folks on the webinar were claiming that if you’re seeing electrical power outages now, it may be multiplied by up to 100 times in the future if there is no more additional electrical generation. Of course that was a worst-case scenario, but it got me thinking.

With harvest wrapped up across the countryside, it’s a natural time to reflect on the year and the results of all the hard work put into this season’s crops. From there, we start thinking about what else can be done to keep that success going.

We have recently wrapped up our latest fiscal year audit, and I am happy to report that your cooperative experienced another solid year in 2025. A notable achievement includes continued year-over-year growth from our feed division. Our energy team also maintained their steady performance and improved results over 2024. While grain farming was handed a more challenging year in 2025 with market volatility, high input costs, and trade uncertainty, the agronomy division pulled back from some of the recent highs but was able to grow volumes and services for their members. Each division ended the year with strong sales and positive earnings. Premier will report fiscal 2025 net savings of just over $15 million and total revenues at $285 million.
