Farm fuel delivery provides agricultural operations with fuel delivered directly to on-site storage systems for use in tractors, machinery, livestock operations, and other qualifying farming activities.

Agricultural fuel users may include crop production operations, livestock, dairy farm, poultry, fish farm, fruit, and vegetable growers, as well as ranches, ranges, orchards, and groves. Wherever land is worked to produce food and other farm products, fuel keeps the operation moving.

Who Uses Agricultural Fuel Delivery?

These services support the family farm, large agribusiness operations, ranchers, contractors, and rural estate properties involved in raising crops or livestock. Whatever the size of the business, the goal is the same: keep equipment running and work on schedule. Working with dependable agricultural fuel suppliers makes it easier to keep equipment operating, manage inventory, and plan farm diesel delivery around planting, cultivation, harvest, and livestock care.

McCraw supplies several fuels and products that support agricultural operations throughout Texas and Oklahoma.

Dyed Diesel and Off-Road Diesel

Red-dyed diesel is intended for qualifying off-highway equipment, including tractors, combines, generators, and irrigation pumps. It cannot legally be used in vehicles traveling on public roads.

 Although it is designated for off-road use, the diesel used in nonroad agricultural engines and equipment must still comply with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emissions requirements.

Clear Diesel and Farm Gasoline

These fuels, including farm gas for lighter equipment, support pickups, trucks, and machinery that may travel on public roads — unlike dyed agricultural diesel fuel reserved for qualifying off-road use. Reliable fuel means reliable power across the whole operation.

Propane

Agricultural propane supports barn heating, grain drying, greenhouse climate control, irrigation, and backup power. Our guide to industrial propane applications explains how farms and manufacturers use propane across daily operations.

McCraw also provides lubricants and oils for pumps, trucks, tractors, and heavy farm equipment.

Farm and ranch fuel needs can change quickly, so McCraw offers delivery options built around the way each operation works.

Scheduled Deliveries for Busy Farm Seasons

Scheduled deliveries help align fuel supply with planting, harvest, livestock care, and other high-demand periods. Managed inventory also uses tank levels and purchasing patterns to help determine when the next fill may be needed.

Will-Call and Responsive Fuel Support

Customers who prefer more control can choose will-call delivery and contact McCraw when fuel runs low. Responsive local support is especially valuable during extreme weather or an equipment-heavy week when downtime can affect crops, animals, and profits. A quick fill lets you keep operating instead of waiting on fuel.

Direct Farm Diesel Fuel Delivery

Direct farm diesel fuel delivery brings fuel to approved storage tanks or operating sites, helping reduce retail station trips and keeping essential equipment moving, including:

• tractors and harvesters

• irrigation pumps

• generators and other farm equipment

McCraw also offers flexible delivery windows through its fuel delivery services.

The right storage tank depends on fuel type, equipment demand, delivery volume, site layout, and the busiest weeks of the year.

Better Control With Properly Sized Storage Tanks

Properly sized storage tanks give farmers more control over when they purchase fuel and how often deliveries are needed. Tank placement and installation must also meet applicable fire, environmental, and safety requirements.

Depending on the installation, some aboveground storage tanks may be subject to federal Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) requirements, as outlined by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in addition to applicable state and local regulations.

Remote Monitoring Helps Manage Fuel Inventory

Wireless monitors can track tank levels remotely and alert the team before it is time to fill. This helps prevent run-outs, over-ordering, and unnecessary deliveries while supporting more accurate planning and bookkeeping.

Bulk Purchasing and Fuel Cost Planning

Buying fuel in bulk may lower the per-gallon cost compared with repeated retail purchases, although final pricing depends on fuel type, volume, distance, tank requirements, and delivery schedule.

Accurate monitoring also helps farms plan bulk purchases, avoid urgent deliveries and rush fees, and manage fuel costs with greater confidence — which can save real money across a busy season.

Agricultural propane supports far more than building heat. Grain dryers use controlled propane heat to manage moisture in corn and other grain crops, helping producers reduce spoilage after harvest. Propane also burns cleanly, which supports more sustainable operations on many farms. Learn more about efficient crop and grain drying.

Propane can also power irrigation pumps, frost-protection systems, flame-weeding equipment, and backup generators for water systems, food storage, and other essential farm equipment. In barns and poultry houses, steady heat helps maintain safer conditions for livestock operations during cold weather.

Dyed diesel is intended for qualifying off-road uses, including many agricultural operations. According to the IRS, fuel used on a farm for farming purposes and certain off-highway business activities may qualify for tax benefits, depending on how the fuel is used and documented.

Texas distinguishes between taxable clear diesel for highway vehicles and dyed diesel intended for eligible off-road equipment. Qualifying agricultural users may also be eligible for state exemptions through the Texas Comptroller’s agricultural and timber exemption program.

Oklahoma producers should verify current requirements with the Oklahoma Tax Commission or a qualified tax expert before claiming an exemption. Tax eligibility ultimately depends on how fuel is purchased, documented, and used.
