Diesel Market Update - Why Now Is the Time to Fill Your Tanks

Jason Kamann, Vice President of Energy at Sunrise Cooperative, provides an update on the diesel fuel market and what it means for farmers heading into harvest season and beyond.

In this market outlook, Jason reviews how global events impacted diesel prices during spring planting, explains why prices have fallen significantly since then, and outlines several factors that could influence fuel markets in the months ahead. He discusses current diesel inventory levels, global supply concerns, export demand, and why Sunrise believes now is a good time for producers to evaluate their fuel storage needs.

Jason also shares recommendations on:

  • Filling farm fuel tanks ahead of fall harvest
  • Managing fuel price risk through contracting
  • Fall diesel contracting strategies
  • Considerations for Spring 2027 fuel purchases
  • Using contracts as a risk management tool in an uncertain market

Whether you're harvesting wheat, preparing for fall harvest, or planning ahead for next spring, this update offers valuable insights to help guide your fuel purchasing decisions.
