Posted October 4, 2024Distillate fuel oil demand will increase in the fall because of the agricultural harvest ›
Note: Total distillate fuel oil includes petroleum-based distillate fuel oil, renewable diesel, and biodiesel.
We expect distillate fuel oil consumption to increase in the fall as diesel-powered agricultural equipment is used to harvest and transport crops. The harvest tends to peak in mid-October and continue through November, when the start of the winter home heating season also supports distillate fuel oil demand. With early indications that the 2024 harvest will likely be on schedule or slightly ahead of schedule, we expect distillate demand to generally follow the five-year average in 2024.
