According to recent data from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), Canadian sales of agricultural tractors and combines grew in March compared to the year before, while U.S. sales of Ag tractors and combines declined during the same time period.

“We are thrilled to see this growth in Canadian equipment sales; however, the drop in agricultural tractor and combines the US reflect the complex challenges facing the market,” said AEM Senior Vice President Curt Blades. “There is uncertainty due to tariffs and the overall Ag economy. The resilience and adaptability we’ve seen from agricultural equipment manufacturers keeps us optimistic about the long-term future of this market. AEM looks forward to continuing to advocate for policies that elevate the agricultural equipment industry and foster growth and innovation.”

U.S. sales of agricultural tractors dipped 13.6% in March 2025, while U.S. sales of combines fell 37.7% compared to 2024. Canadian sales of agricultural tractors grew 18.6% in March compared to the year before, while Canadian combine sales jumped 69%.
