The DLA fixed its standard fuel price at rates that were often much higher than what the airlines were paying â sometimes $1 or more a gallon. All told, the DLA charged the armed forces about $23 billion more for fuel between 2010 and 2016 than what airlines would have paid on the open market, according to a review of Pentagon purchasing data.
Listen to MP3 podcast. Farmer-paid diesel fuel prices averaged $2.30 per gallon for purchases made in March 2015. The March 2015 prices were 36% lower than the $3.58 per gallon average during March 2014. In 2014, fuel costs averaged $24 per acre for corn grown in central Illinois. If a 36% decrease occurs, similar to that for diesel fuel prices, fuel costs would be reduced by $9 per acre. While helpful, a $9 per acre decrease only represents a 1.5% decrease in non-land costs.
