It depends how large of a crop a producer needs to dry, Prybylski said, but for some the cost can be upwards of $10,000.

Proposals for farmers moving to renewable energy have been brought up as an alternative, notably by Liberal MP Ryan Turnbull and Environmental Defence. Increased access to financing for farmers to work toward using renewable energy resources has also been discussed, but farmers say renewable energy would not be a feasible alternative at this time, Prybylski said.
