North American sales of some tractors have increased this year from 2023 levels while total farm tractors saw a small decline, according to the latest monthly data from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers.
A representative of the nation’s largest farm equipment companies is pointing to supply chain challenges as a driving force behind issues getting new tractors into the hands of American producers.
Last year was a good one for combine and tractor sales, with small tractor sales and self-propelled combines leading the way, according to the Association of Equipment Manufacturers' December U.S. Ag Tractor and Combine Report.
U.S. sales of tractors and combines remained positive at the mid-year mark, with all machine categories in the plus column, according to the latest data from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers.
Despite concerns about declining farm income and dwindling commodity prices, sales of farm tractors and combines all experienced modest bumps last year.
