There was a thread in Late Dec or Early Jan on fuel.

Market was about at its lowest at that point prior to the cold snap.

Even with crude somewhat soft, ULSD has been going up. (2.15 ish was the low point I saw for Red, currently about 40 cents above that)

We are covered for spring and early fall but will need more red and clear to get through harvest. Just seeing if anyone has a real strong opinion on chasing it here vs being patient.





On fuel I’ve been more worried about it going up rather than down the past few years with all the global/political excitement. Anytime I see fuel decently priced vs the past few years I’ve been buying a year ahead. I’m 80-90% covered for 2026 needs as of 60 days ago.
