Propane is a smart, environmentally-friendly and money-saving fuel for the farm with many uses. Farm, ranch and other agricultural customers rely on Dassel’s for the following propane applications:
On the farm, propane can be up to 50% less expensive than other options. Agricultural propane is the choice of nearly 900,000 farms across America. Plus, propane is a truly American fuel source that reduces a farm’s carbon footprint.
Here are ten benefits of using propane for agricultural purposes:
Versatile Energy Source: It can power a wide range of farm equipment, including irrigation systems, grain dryers, and generators, making it suitable for diverse agricultural needs.
Cost-Effective: Propane is often less expensive than diesel and electricity, providing a cost-efficient energy solution for farming operations.
Energy Efficiency: Propane equipment, such as grain dryers and irrigation engines, is highly efficient, reducing fuel consumption and operating costs.
Environmentally Friendly: Propane burns cleaner than diesel or gasoline, emitting fewer greenhouse gases and pollutants, which helps farmers meet environmental regulations.
Reliable Supply: Propane is stored on-site, ensuring farmers have a steady energy supply without relying on grid power, which can be critical during peak seasons or emergencies.
Reduced Maintenance: Propane engines and equipment typically require less maintenance than their diesel counterparts due to cleaner combustion.
Improved Crop Quality: Propane-powered grain dryers offer precise temperature control, which helps maintain grain quality and maximize yield.
Portability: Propane can be used in remote locations, enabling farmers to operate equipment in fields far from electrical infrastructure.
Safety: Propane is a non-toxic fuel, reducing risks of contamination for soil and water in case of leaks or spills.
Government Incentives: Many governments offer incentives and rebates for using clean-burning propane in agricultural applications, further reducing costs.
These benefits make propane a practical, efficient, and sustainable energy choice for modern farming operations. Click here to get a quote today!
