When talking with Mike Newland from PERC about how farmers benefit from using propane, here are some key points to cover:Cost Efficiency: Propane is often cheaper than traditional fuels like diesel or gasoline. This can lead to significant savings on fuel expenses, allowing farmers to boost profitability and reduce overall operational costsEnvironmental Benefits: Propane burns cleaner than conventional fuels, producing fewer greenhouse gas emissions. This helps farmers meet sustainability goals and align their operations with environmentally friendly practicesReliability & Performance: Propane-powered equipment, such as irrigation engines, delivers consistent and reliable performance, ensuring crops get the water they need during critical growing periods. Its versatility across different farming systems also supports a wide range of agricultural needsIncentives & Support: Farmers can take advantage of financial incentives, rebates, and tax credits for adopting propane-powered systems. PERC, for instance, offers programs that offset the initial investment, making it easier for farmers to transition to propaneVersatility: Propane is used in multiple farming applications, including grain drying, space heating, water heating, and flame weeding. It's also highly reliable for power generation in remote locationsBulk Fill Opportunities & On-Site Storage: Farmers can benefit from bulk fill programs, allowing them to lock in better pricing by buying propane in larger quantities. On-site propane storage is crucial, especially during peak farming seasons, ensuring a reliable fuel supply without the need for frequent deliveriesEarly Season Discounts & Early Tank Fills: Discuss how early season discounts and tank fills give farmers the chance to purchase propane at lower prices before demand spikes. These early fills prepare farmers for critical operations like grain drying or irrigation during harvestGrain Drying & the Grain Drying Calculator: Propane is widely used for grain drying, especially in unpredictable weather. The propane grain drying calculator helps farmers estimate fuel needs and costs, optimizing drying times and fuel consumptionBuilding Heating with Propane: Propane is also effective for heating farm buildings like barns and greenhouses, providing efficient and consistent heat, especially in cold seasonsHusker Harvest Days Promo & Incentives: Highlight the special promotions farmers can access during events like Husker Harvest Days, and touch on the Propane Farm Incentive Program, which offers rebates for adopting propane-powered equipmentIrrigation Cost Calculator & Propane-Powered Irrigation: Propane-powered irrigation systems help lower operational costs and ensure consistent performance. The irrigation cost calculator can assist farmers in determining how much they could save by switching to propaneNew Propane Equipment for 2025: Encourage discussions on upgrading farm equipment to propane-powered options for 2025, emphasizing long-term savings, improved efficiency, and environmental benefitsDon't forget to like the podcast on all platforms and leave a review where ever you listen!Websitewww.Farm4Profit.comShareable episode linkhttps://intro-to-farm4profit.simplecast.comEmail addressFarm4profitllc@gmail.comPhone515.207.9640Subscribe to YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSR8c1BrCjNDDI_Acku5XqwFollow us on TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@farm4profitConnect with us on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/Farm4ProfitLLC/

What started as a grassroots effort to provide farmers and ranchers with vital information, has turned into a 15 station media network spanning the state of Nebraska and reaching four additional states.

Then last month I read an article on CropLife called “The Top 6 Questions Every Agribusiness Should Be Asking About Cyberattacks and Data Security”. As a read the six questions I thought “those are just about exactly the six questions I would want to ask a cybersecurity expert on my podcast. And the author was Mike Moore who you're about to hear from. Mike is the Senior Vice President of the agribusiness division at Ever.Ag and has been serving as such since 1997 under the EFC Systems brand. At the start of his tenure, his initial focus was developing the technology and infrastructure services division to help guide and direct the technology needs for client partners. Although his responsibilities have broadened, he is still passionate about helping ag retailers better serve their customers in a secure and efficient way. Before we dive in, some context: the most common type of cyber attack is what's called a ransomware attack. In this case the criminal inserts malware on your system, and is able to essentially lock it down until they are paid a ransom. The second common type of attack involves extracting data that can be sold. There's been some notable examples in recent years including JBS, which reportedly paid hackers an $11 million ransom last year. Speaking at Husker Harvest Days last month, FBI agent Eugene Kowel said an attack on a farm in January 2021 contributed to the loss of nearly $9 million. This is a real issue that everyone in ag should be vigilant about, and it seems to be getting worse. Mike and I talk about how these attacks happen, what to watch out for, and some important tips for reducing your vulnerability.
