LPG for agriculture focused processes and businesses
From grain drying to flame weeding; commercial nursery operations to the farming of live stock, fruit and vegetables – LPG meets the energy needs of agricultural businesses operating in remote and regional off-grid locations.
When yield and efficiency is everything, consistent, controllable and economical heating and hot water is critical. Add the unique, near-complete combustion properties of LPG and the low risk of burning or contaminating produce, you can see why Australian agricultural operators use LPG for agriculture processes to meet their business energy needs.
Grain drying
High grade heat in large volumes to support post-harvest operations.
Heating
Large area space heating for nurseries, greenhouses, stables and sheds.
Live stock farming
Instantaneous hot water for sanitising live stock processing areas.
Flame weeding
