While sectors such as housing and automobiles have seen a drop in demand, we’ve not seen the same in the farm equipment market (new or used).
We now have the hottest used farm equipment market I’ve ever seen, and a Nov. 6 auction in Maryland is the hottest auction I’ve seen in my 32 years of tracking prices.
This tractor reached a new high record price--surpassing the auction prices of the past 9 years.
As I look to the future of the farm equipment market, I find myself looking back to draw on lessons I’ve learned in the past decades.
This fall and winter, I was frequently asked, “Pete, when is the other shoe going to drop?” This is a good question, as the used farm equipment market was on fire.
This 2005 John Deere 7420 with 2619 hours and new 741 loader from Nebraska was listed For Sale By Owner last week on MachineryPete.com
This 1979 John Deere 4440 with 4533 hours and 1981 John Deere 8440 with 5625 hours sold for strong prices on a 1/28/22 farm auction
