Tractor/Combine Sales Decline in July

According to new data from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), U.S. sales of agricultural tractors dropped 10.9% in July 2026 compared to the year before, with combine sales declining 5.3% in the same period. 

Canadian agricultural tractor sales fell 7.8% in July, while combine sales declined 10.8% compared to July 2025.

“The July data reflects continued softness in the agricultural equipment market as farmers and equipment manufacturers navigate persistent economic uncertainty,” said Curt Blades, AEM Senior Vice President. “Farmers continue to face difficult decisions, and clear, consistent policy direction is essential to helping them plan, invest and remain competitive.”
