Nearly 80% of farms in the United States use propane, and with good reason: Propane power is a clean-burning, reliable and efficient energy source that farmers can depend on.

The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) is dedicated to educating the agriculture industry on the benefits of propane energy, and to helping develop new propane technologies for the farm, including:

Thermal Agriculture - Propane-powered innovations that assist production agriculture in controlling weeds, insects, and microbes.

Crop/Food Conditioning - Propane industry research and technology that protect agriculture commodities through harvest, storage, and processing.

Nutrient Management - Propane research and technology that helps farmers properly manage farm waste materials.

Power Generation - Propane research and technology that provide power for agriculture equipment through engines, electrical generation, fuel cells, or micro-turbines.
