I don't use propane, but the 3 ag coops I deal with it is a big portion of their fuel divisions.
At meetings and so forth, I get the impression they bend over backwards to work with the farm customers, and make things a little tougher for the homeowner customers. Again from the meetings, I get the impression farmers buy in volume, are easier to schedule fillups and deal with monthly billing along with the rest of the farm stuff.

Didn't affect me so I don't know the details, but was a deal.
