Down on the farm

LPG lends itself to many farming uses as it is clean burning and very responsive, making it especially suitable for use where food crops or livestock are involved.

Radiant heaters powered by LPG are used in animal sheds to assist the successful weaning and growth of piglets, and LPG heating also helps game chicks and chickens to prosper.

Crop production can also benefit from LPG. Crop drying is achieved safely and efficiently with LPG heating and LPG cylinders are used to power a variety of farming equipment out in the fields.

Farm machinery run on LPG lasts longer and has lower maintenance costs than equipment powered by conventional fuels.
