Harvest Preparation

With harvest fast approaching, make downtime the thing of the past. Premier Cooperative brings you Cenex® fuel & lubricant solutions PLUS Cenex Automated Fuel Delivery (AFD) so you're always ready.

Why AFD (Automated Fuel Delivery)

  1. Smart Fuel Monitoring
    Our advanced sensor and electronic system installed in your tank automatically signals us when fuel levels drop below your set threshold—ensuring timely refills without the guesswork.

  2. Flexible Billing Options
    Choose the payment plan that works best for you:

    • Deferred billing – pay monthly for what you use
    • Upon delivery – pay as fuel arrives
    • Fixed-price contracts – lock in favorable rates and budget with confidence
  3. 24/7 Online Access
    Stay informed anytime with secure portal access to:

    • Real-time fuel levels
    • Usage history
    • Delivery records
      Plus, receive alerts when your tank reaches key levels. (Powered by Cenex)
  4. No-Cost Conversion
    Switching to AFD is easy and free—our team installs all sensors and monitors at no charge.

What to do now:

  1. Top off your tanks early with Cenex® Ruby Fieldmaster® Premium Diesel — great detergency, cold-weather protection, fuel economy gains.
  2. Use the right Cenex® lubricants and greases to guard your equipment through harvest’s tough hours.
  3. Enroll in the AFD program through Premier Cooperative so you never have to check fuel levels manually or worry about running out.
