Lounsberry seeks stepped up oil deliveries for harvest
Agriculture Secretary Robert Lounsberry urged the U S Agriculture and Gas Administration to release November diesel allotments and boost refinery supplies to Iowa farmers. He warned many farmers face fuel shortages in the approaching harvest and cited diesel powered combines making up about four percent of new equipment. He noted last year’s harvest was delayed by bad weather and stressed urgency for emergency fuel and gasoline to operate machinery, plant crops, and apply fertilizer.

Diesel Fuel Plan Concerns Farm Bureau
The Farm Bureau warned that the federal diesel fuel allocation will hinder agriculture's ability to meet rising food production. They argued the mandatory plan lacks priority for farming and cannot support increased corn and soybean acreage as harvests expand. They urged assurances of fuel availability before expanding crop areas and expressed doubt that allocations can meet future needs.
