Farming and other commercial businesses require a steady, dependable supply of diesel fuel and gasoline
Cooperatives sell energy for the same reasons they sell feed, seed and fertilizer: to ensure their members have access to the inputs and services they need to run their businesses. United Cooperative purchases propane, diesel fuel, gasoline and lubricants from Cenex, which is itself part of a farmer-owned cooperative with its own refineries in Kansas and Montana. The ability to refine petroleum is a huge advantage for Cenex and for our member-owners. It helps ensure a steady, dependable supply of fuel for our customers regardless of geopolitical events or product shortages. Fuel and propane purchases are also eligible for patronage, or return of capital to our members.

Farm and business owners can count on this environmentally friendly, low-carbon fuel to meet their energy needs.
