Kerajaan pimpinan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim mengambil langkah segera untuk menambah baik bantuan kepada pengguna diesel bagi meringankan beban rakyat serta memastikan aktiviti ekonomi terus berjalan lancar. Penambahbaikan ini melibatkan Insentif Pembajakan kepada Pesawah (IPKP) bagi musim penanaman 2026, bantuan tunai BUDI Agri-Komoditi dan BUDI Diesel Individu. Ini menunjukkan komitmen kerajaan dalam menyokong golongan sasar yang terkesan dengan kos sara hidup yang meningkat. Usaha ini melibatkan tanggungan subsidi sekitar RM7 bilion pada bulan ini, termasuk dana tambahan RM75 juta, untuk ketiga-tiga ikhtiar bantuan tersebut. Langkah ini dijangka akan memberi impak positif kepada sektor pertanian dan individu yang bergantung kepada diesel dalam aktiviti harian mereka.
