# Red diesel prices ease as crude oil falls from recent highs

> Red diesel in Great Britain averaged 108.6p per litre for a 5,000-litre delivery, down about 6p from the previous week. The decline followed a sharp fall in Brent crude as expectations of further US strikes on Iran eased, although prices edged higher again amid uncertainty over negotiations and shipping risks.

## Why it matters

Lower crude prices reduce farm fuel costs and can ease pressure on crop production and transport expenses. Continued uncertainty over Iran and Strait of Hormuz shipping could limit the decline or renew upward pressure on diesel.
