by The agricultural tractor is a vehicle used in farming operations such as tilling, planting, fertilizing, spraying and harvesting. Powered by a diesel or gasoline engine, an agricultural tractor provides power and mobility to agricultural machinery and implements such as plows, seeders, fertilizer spreaders and harvesters. It allows efficient farming on a large scale and saves significant time and labor cost compared to manual operations. The global agricultural tractor market enables mechanization of agriculture, higher productivity and farm output. Mechanization has become a necessity for small and large-scale farms with decreasing pool of farm labor.
The global Agricultural Tractor Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 76,015.76 million in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.6% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Key Trends:
One of the key trends in the agricultural tractor market is growing demand for compact tractors. Compact tractors are lesser in size, suitable for small farming operations on 3-5 acres of land and ideal for tasks like mowing grass, maintaining yards and gardens. They provide maneuverability and cost benefits for small land holdings. With increasing mechanization of small farms and need for multipurpose tractors, demand for sub-50 horsepower compact tractors is growing worldwide. Global players are focusing on launching new compact tractor models integrated with advanced technologies to improve their performance. For instance, in 2021, Mahindra & Mahindra introduced Swaraj TrakStar, a 35 HP compact tractor targeted at small farmers for varied farm and landscaping operations.
