## Resource

Nebraska farmers are reeling from diesel prices nearly double last year—just as harvest season hits. With fueling a thousand-gallon tank costing $5,000, many like 40-year veteran Paula Peterson say it’s adding at least a third to their costs. They can’t wait for prices to fall—they’ve got crops to bring in and a nation to feed. Despite the financial squeeze and feeling powerless against these hikes, they’re pushing forward, driven by duty, not choice.
