Used Tractors Market Analysis
The Used Tractors Market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.60% during the forecast period.
- Used tractor sales are increasing globally, commanding premium prices at auctions. This trend is primarily due to new tractor models offering features often exceeding many farmers' requirements. Farmers increasingly turn to the second-hand market to avoid unnecessary expenditure on advanced technology. Older tractors also offer the advantage of easier on-farm repairs, often without requiring expensive diagnostic tools. Despite their age, these tractors demonstrate their effectiveness in the field, proving to be more practical for many farmers.
- The United States is witnessing an influx of used tractors, particularly low-hour machines, driving prices to record highs. Between 2020 and 2023, equipment manufacturers increased their prices by 40%. This price surge is attributed to supply chain disruptions and material shortages, resulting in factory delays and increasing the scarcity premium for used tractors.
- In developing nations, the tractor market has traditionally been disorganized. However, this landscape is changing due to the emergence of e-commerce platforms and online listings. For example, India's used tractor market is predominantly unstructured, with dispersed demand and supply. Despite these challenges, online platforms are experiencing a significant increase in tractor listings. E-commerce platforms like "Tractor Junction" are not only listing tractors but also providing financing options for many of them, particularly benefiting small and marginalized farmers. These strategic initiatives are expected to boost sales in developing countries. The increasing availability of used tractors, coupled with the growth of e-commerce platforms in emerging regions, is expected to drive the used tractor market during the forecast period.
Used Tractors Market Trends
Sales of New Tractors Are on the Decline
- According to CEMA, the European Agricultural Machinery Association, tractor registrations across 30 European countries decreased by 4.9% in 2023. The decline was more pronounced in the second half of the year, with registrations falling by nearly 10% from July to December 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This downturn is attributed to several factors affecting farm incomes, including adverse weather conditions, decreasing agricultural prices, and increasing input costs. Consequently, farmers are showing a reduced willingness to invest in new tractors and other machinery.
- The current market conditions are expected to boost sales of used tractors. These pre-owned alternatives offer a more cost-effective option for small and medium-sized farmers globally, allowing them to conserve resources. In India, the Tractor and Mechanization Association reported a decline in new tractor sales from 1.04 million units in 2022 to 1.01 million units in 2023. This decrease may be linked to the rising prices of new tractors and the increased availability of more affordable used tractors. Used tractors, even those less than three years old, can typically be purchased for about 80% of their original price, making them an attractive option for farmers, especially those venturing into commercial operations.
North America Dominates the Used Tractors Market
- Sales of large agricultural equipment in the United States and Canada are expected to decrease by 15%, indicating a continued reduction in demand during the second half of the year, particularly for large tractors. Farmer sentiment remains cautious due to several factors affecting purchasing decisions, including increasing global stocks, falling commodity prices, high interest rates, and unpredictable weather patterns. Additionally, the market outlook is influenced by increased levels of used inventory, especially for recent model-year machines.
- After reaching peak levels in 2022, prices for used tractors and other pre-owned machinery and equipment have shown a slight decline since early 2024. The demand for used equipment has also stabilized in 2024. However, as the overall cost of farm equipment continues to rise, the used tractor market may experience further growth.
- Statistics Canada's 2021 Census data revealed that the market value of 659,337 tractors, both owned and leased, was approximately USD 17.3 billion. This figure represented over a third (36.9%) of the total market value for farm machinery, equipment, and vehicles, indicating significant demand for used agricultural machinery, especially tractors.
- The market for used tractors in North America is expected to grow during the review period. This growth is likely to be driven by increasing interest rates, a decline in new tractor sales, and rising prices of agricultural inputs and machinery.
