Agriculture Industry Gas Solutions
Supporting Australian Farmers and Agribusiness
Agriculture underpins Australia’s economy, producing food, fibre, and raw materials for both domestic and international markets. From broadacre grain farms to aquaculture operations and greenhouses, Pacific Gas helps agricultural producers maintain efficiency with dependable access to industrial gases through a national distributor network.
Our rent-free cylinder exchange model offers flexibility, allowing farmers and rural businesses to access the gases they need without ongoing rental contracts or lengthy service arrangements.
Gases Used in Agriculture
- Oxygen (O₂) – Essential in aquaculture to maintain healthy water conditions for fish and aquatic species.
- Nitrogen (N₂) – Used in crop storage, packaging, and pest control to prevent spoilage and extend shelf life.
- Argon (Ar) – Used in MIG and TIG welding and for creating stable, controlled environments in packaging and storage.
- Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) – Enriches greenhouse atmospheres for faster plant growth and maintains freshness in stored produce.
- Acetylene (C₂H₂) – Combined with oxygen for welding, brazing, and maintenance of farm equipment and infrastructure.
All gases are available in various cylinder sizes through local distributors and meet Australian safety and quality standards.
Common Agricultural Applications
Welding and Repairs
Farmers and equipment operators rely on acetylene, oxygen, and argon for fabricating and maintaining machinery, fencing, and storage facilities.
Controlled Atmosphere Storage
Carbon dioxide and nitrogen are used to regulate oxygen levels in silos, cool rooms, and warehouses, slowing ripening and reducing crop loss.
Greenhouse Cultivation
CO₂ enrichment boosts plant growth by improving photosynthesis and crop yield.
Aquaculture
Oxygenation systems maintain water quality in fish and prawn farming, promoting growth and feed efficiency.
Pest Management and Preservation
Nitrogen is used to create inert storage environments that protect stored grains and produce from pests and microbial activity.
