AEM Reports Monthly Sales

10/10/2009

Sales of farm equipment remained below 5-year trend lines for September 2009. However, one segment continues to show strong sales, combines. Four-wheel-drive tractor unit sales are positive year-to-date compared with 2008 numbers. The largest dip is seen in tractor sales, particulary 40 hp to 100 hp comparing year to year data.
