Energy Extras
Cenex Lubricants
By Scott Chase, Energy Department Manager
2024 has been a year of shifts in the oil and gas industry. Global prices have seen both upswings and downtrends due to a mix of global political tensions, inflation, and changes in energy policies. Crude oil prices have been impacted by OPEC+ production cuts, while natural gas prices remain volatile, largely due to fluctuations in the industry. Currently crude oil is hovering around $65 per barrel, with potential tensions in the Middle East. European and Asian markets are experiencing higher demand, particularly with winter approaching.
Now that harvest is wrapping up, it is a good time of year to start looking at what you need for spring. It is an excellent time to top off your oil and grease needs. Take advantage of the gallons program. For every 100 gallons purchased you qualify for a $50 gift card. The bulk oil truck is loaded. We can provide Super lube TMS 15-40 and Qwiklift hydraulic off it. We also have all fully synthetic oils, bulk Def, and all farm tires on hand. With that I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and we appreciate your business.

Energy Sector
By Scott Chase, Energy Department Manager
As we transition from summer to fall, the energy sector is experiencing shifts, much like the changing season. Oil prices dipped slightly, ending a two-day rise, even after the Federal Reserve implemented its first interest rate cut in years. Warmer temperatures have reduced the demand for drying fuel, impacting seasonal needs. Additionally, fluctuations in oil prices could be influenced by hurricane activity in the Gulf of Mexico.
With the 2024 harvest season approaching, it’s time to assess the supplies need for a smooth operation. Whether it’s fuel, oil, grease, tires or even new hoses for your combine, tractor, or wagons, ensuring your farm is ready is crucial. The teams at your local Central Farmers Cooperative branches in Salem, Scotland, Springfield, and Tyndall are here to assist with your needs. From all of us at Central Farmers Cooperative, we wish you a safe and prosperous harvest season and thank you for your continued business.
