According to new data from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), U.S. sales of combines increased 3.9% in June 2026 compared to the year before. Canadian sales of combines were also up, ending the month 14.2% higher than June 2025.  

U.S. sales of agricultural tractors dropped 18.4%, while Canadian sales declined 12.5% year over year in April 2026.

 “The June data reflects a market that is still navigating significant economic headwinds,” said Curt Blades, AEM Senior Vice President. “Although tractor sales remain below last year’s levels, the increase in combine sales is a welcome development and demonstrates that farmers continue to invest where it makes the most sense for their operations. Greater certainty around market conditions and long-term farm policy remains critical to supporting confidence across rural America.”
