Moving Iron: Is the Ag Equipment Market Finally Turning Around?
The ag equipment market may be showing early signs of a turnaround as used equipment values begin to strengthen and manufacturers start bringing workers back to production facilities. Clinton Griffiths has conversations with Casey Seymour, Greg "Machinery Pete" Peterson, and Kurt Blades of the Association of Equipment Manufacturers discussing what those trends could mean for farmers, dealers and the broader equipment industry. The conversation covers high diesel prices, rising interest rates, tariff uncertainty, supply chain challenges and the importance of having a long-term equipment and parts strategy heading into harvest. With farmers operating tighter fleets and putting more hours on fewer machines, planning and equipment efficiency are becoming increasingly important. Looking ahead, Blades discusses the potential for an equipment market recovery, changing crop acreage, growing productivity and the factors that could shape demand through 2027 and beyond.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
