• Arkansas executive order allows off road diesel on highways (nwahomepage.com) — Farmers around Lincoln can temporarily cut fuel costs thanks to a new Arkansas executive order allowing agricultural users to run cheaper red‑dyed diesel on highways for 30 days. A Lincoln farmer explains how the change eases $6‑per‑gallon fill‑ups, but also raises questions about possible fines once the grace period ends and residue remains in tanks.
