TRACTOR SALES DOWN IN JANUARY 10% on same month last year
UK registrations of agricultural tractors (over 50hp) in January 2019 were 10% down on the same month last year, at 630 machines, according to figures released by the AEA.
"This year's number is in line with the figure from January 2017 though," said AEA economist, Stephen Howarth, "and, as the start of the year tends to be a quiet period for tractor registrations, it is too early to draw any conclusions about longer-term trends, especially given the relatively high registrations in December 2018."
