Increase in demand for food has burdened the agriculture industry across the globe. Thus, to escalate the production rate, farmers are relying on agricultural tractors for sowing, ploughing and spraying. Furthermore, improving mechanization in tractors is rapidly growing the adoption of the same.

Demand Analysis of Agricultural Tractors from 2015 to 2021 Vs Market Projections for 2022 to 2032

As per Fact.MR’s report, from 2015 to 2021, the global sales of agricultural tractors market experienced an incline of 4%. A rapidly expanding population and consequent requirement of food has led to an increase in the proportion of food crops cultivation, impelling demand for agricultural tractors in the recent past.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, prospects somewhat declined, especially in the first half of 2020, attributed to the imposition of strict lockdowns. The prevalence of these lockdowns prevented any agricultural activity from happening, leading to cessation of usage of agricultural tractors. However, as the curbs eased, a gradual resurgences is being observed.

Manufacturers of agricultural tractors are focusing on improving the efficiency of the same by making them automatic and electric. Moreover, cost efficiency and convenience of using 2WD tractors is escalating the demand for agricultural tractors.  Thus, the sales of agricultural tractors are expected to exceed US$ 113 Mn by registering a CAGR of 6% in the forecast period 2022-2032.

Convenience Playing a Key Role in Upsurging Demand for Agricultural Tractors?

Agriculture is one of the major occupations of most people across the globe. Increase in the population has burdened farmers with providing food. As demand and supply chain of food is getting affected at a large scale, farmers are depending on options that make crop cultivation easy. Thus, the demand for agricultural tractors has increased.

Agricultural tractors are convenient to use and fasten the process of crop cultivation. Moreover, changes in seasons require a change in crop production. Thus, the process of ploughing, sowing and spraying is time consuming. Due to these factors, manufacturers of agricultural tractors are focusing on improvising existing models by working on mechanization of tractors. This, in turn, is expected to improve the sales of agricultural tractors.

Mechanization Increasing Popularity of Agricultural Tractors?

Technological advancement is playing a key role in the innovation of agricultural tractors. Companies are focusing on integrating electric power for smooth and easy functioning of tractors. Moreover, to reduce the burden of farmers and to augment the process of crop cultivation, automatic tractors are being preferred by farmers on a large scale.

In addition, large and small farm lands require different tractors. Thus, 2 WD and 4WD tractors have gained popularity as they are helpful to escalate the production of crops. Furthermore, the integration of telematics and initiatives by governments to increase the agricultural sector is positively influencing the sales of agricultural tractors.

Country-wise Analysis

Dominance of Agriculture Accelerating Demand for Agricultural Tractors in Asia Pacific?

According to India Brand Equity Foundation, 58% of the Indian occupation practices agriculture. In addition, agriculture strongly contributes to the gross domestic product of the country. Moreover, India is the largest producer of pulses and jute along with the majority of the country’s population being vegetarian. Thus, the demand for accelerating production has increased.

All these factors have increased the demand for agricultural tractors in the country. Presence of key market players along with local players is adding to the market value of agricultural tractors. China too is the largest producer of rice. Technological advancement along with upgradation of mechanical processes in tractors is fueling the growth of agricultural tractors in the region. Thus, Asia Pacific is expected to hold more than 70% market share for agricultural tractors.

Autonomous Tractors Escalating Demand for Agricultural Tractors in Europe?

Technological advancement has taken a forefront in nearly all domains in Europe. Thus, agriculture too is no exception. This has led to the demand for autonomous and electric tractors in Europe. In comparison, the land for agriculture in countries such as Greece, Italy and Lithuania are bigger in comparison to other regions. Thus, to save time, demand for agricultural tractors has escalated in the region.

 Furthermore, the government in Europe is focusing on increasing the production rate of agriculture. Thus, the demand for agricultural tractors has increased in the region. Due to the aforementioned factors, Europe is expected to hold more than 40% market share for agricultural tractors in the forecast period.

Category-Wise Insights

Smaller Farm Lands Bolstering Demand for Less Than 40 HP Agricultural Tractors?

Tractors possessing less than 40 HP engine power have gained massive popularity amongst farmers. This is due to the qualities of less than 40 HP engine power. 40 HP powers are convenient to use in smaller farm lands and perform tasks efficiently. In addition, lower prices of less than 40 HP engine power agricultural tractors is driving the demand for the same.

Furthermore, most farm lands in Asia Pacific are smaller in size. Moreover, continuous ploughing according to the season change requires tractors that would not delay the process of production. Electrical agricultural tractors are gaining huge prominence too for less than 40 HP engine power. Thus, less than 40 HP engine power is expected to hold more than 45% market share for agricultural tractors.

Cost Efficiency and Convenience Increasing Adoption 2 WD Tractors?

Smaller land farms require tractors that can easily turn and move without causing much trouble. Thus, preference towards 2 WD (wheel drive) agricultural tractors has increased by leaps and bounds. 2 WD agricultural tractors are cost efficient and require less investment. In addition, they provide an easy turn cycle in compact and smaller farm lands.

Moreover, 2 WD agricultural tractors are easy to drive and can be easily navigated. Thus, by driveline, 2 WD tractors are expected to hold more than 75% market share for agricultural tractors.
