Equipment sales still growing
Farm tractor sales in the U.S. have continued to grow for 11 straight months, according to the Association of Equipment Manufacturers. March marked the eleventh month of growth for the industry.
“It’s not just the length of time of this growth streak, but the size of growth that makes me feel optimistic this will continue past the 12-month mark,” says Curt Blades, AEM.
