Agricultural Propane Terms and Definitions
A fuel assessment is a review of your farm’s propane needs, including the buildings you heat, the crops you dry, and the equipment you run. We use it to recommend a tank size and delivery schedule that fit your operation.
Livestock shelter heating uses propane-fueled heaters to keep barns, poultry houses, and other animal housing warm in cold weather. Fuel use depends on the size of the structure, the number of animals, and how cold it gets.
Crop drying is the process of using heated air to reduce moisture content in harvested grains and other crops before storage. Propane is a common fuel for grain dryers, and demand tends to rise around harvest.
Irrigation pump fuel is the propane that powers engines driving water pumps for fields and pastures. These pumps can run for long stretches, so a steady supply matters during dry weather.
Bulk farm delivery is a large-volume propane delivery to an on-site storage tank. It’s designed for farms that use more fuel than a typical residential customer.
We install a propane tank monitor on your storage container, which connects to our company app on your smart device. The monitor alerts both you and our delivery team when your tank level is getting low, so fuel can be delivered before you run out.
Automatic delivery is a service where Nelson Propane tracks your estimated usage and schedules refills for you. You don’t have to check tank gauges in the middle of planting or harvest.
Will-call delivery means you monitor your own propane tank levels and order propane when you’re ready for a refill. It gives you control over timing, especially if your fuel use is steady and easy to predict.
