Statewide Iowa (RI) — The issues with propane availability in Iowa are not expected to end very quickly. It’s not that you won’t be able to get propane, but it could end up costing you more. Iowa Agriculture Secretary Mike Naig says it continues to be a demand issue with farmers needing propane to dry crops and others needing it to heat their homes.
He says it doesn’t look like there will be a big change in the situation anytime soon.
Suppliers have had to send trucks long distances to get propane and Naig says that may show up in the price.
He says they would take action if they see the price being raised just to take advantage of the delays in getting propane.
