School Bus

Safety is Key.

Propane Autogas is the not just the best economical choice you can make for your district, it's also the safest for your students. Here's why:

Lower emissions 

The clean burning nature of propane reduces harmful emissions and helps everyone (especially the kids standing at the bus stop) to breathe a little easier. When compared to diesel bus systems, use of propane Autogas led to a 95% reduction in harmful nitogen oxides. (source)

Quieter Operation 

Propane Autogas engines run quitter than diesels, leading to less noise pollution in  inside the bus and around your community. Drivers need to be able to hear students and propane helps that happen.

Safer Handling

Dirty diesel has a way of getting where it shouldn't be. With Propane Autogas, spills are a thing of the past, leading to a hazard-free shop and happy drivers and mechanics.

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.
