As planters get rolling, fuel could cost a little more this week.
Fuel prices are rising across the board. Diesel has gained a cent since last week, holding around $3.55 per gallon nationwide. The cheapest state for diesel is Texas, where it is right around $3.10 per gallon.
Gasoline prices have risen for the second consecutive week, gaining nearly $0.03 over the last week, and it is currently $3.11 per gallon.
GasBuddy says the gains are because of refinery issues, which could continue, and send gas prices up another $0.10-$0.35 over the next few months.
