Abstract
Recently, there has been some concern about energy utilization in agricultural production. Shortages of natural and LP gas have affected many livestock producers, especially swine producers utilizing LP gas as a supplemental heat source in farrowing facilities. These shortages, coupled with an ever-increasing price for fuel and electricity, have encouraged many producers to begin looking for alternative energy sources.
