The U.S. average diesel price fell 16.5 cents to $6.127 per gallon as oil futures continued their sharp post-election decline. Traders reduced expectations of further U.S.-Iran escalation, though the article notes concerns about lost refining capacity and damaged energy infrastructure remain.
Cheaper diesel can lower freight and farm-input costs in the near term, but ongoing supply and refining disruptions could limit relief or renew upward price pressure. No direct change to feed commodity supply or demand is reported.
