According to new data from AEM, U.S. sales of combines increased 3.4% in April 2026 compared to the year before. Canadian sales of combines were also up, ending the month 42.7% higher than April 2025.
"The April sales results of farm tractor and combine sales show the lingering softness in the equipment market,” said Curt Blades, senior vice president at AEM. “These reflect the lingering challenges and uncertainty in the Ag economy. The progress on a US farm bill is encouraging and creates hope for more long-term growth.”
Both U.S. and Canadian sales of agricultural tractors fell 11.3% year over year in April 2026.
The Ag Tractor and Combine reports are released every month and can be found on the AEM Market Share Statistics page. The U.S. report can be downloaded from this page, while the Canadian report is available for download here.
