Market Update: Fuel & Propane Pricing Trends

Over the past few weeks, crude oil prices have seen a welcome decline. However, recent geopolitical events—including airstrikes on the Houthis in Yemen, renewed conflict in Gaza, and a weaker dollar driving crude demand—have led to price stabilization for now.

Diesel and gasoline prices have also been trending downward, though they typically move in line with crude oil.

Propane has shown some weakness, but with strong export demand, any further price drops appear limited. Like crude, propane prices have remained steady in recent days.

We are currently offering diesel fuel contracting for our customers. For a personalized quote, please contact Shane McCully at 608-504-6281.

Thank you for choosing Premier Cooperative—we appreciate your business!

Tar Spot
Jul 07, 2025
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.
