MARKET TRENDS & OPPORTUNITIES

Increasing Use of Bioenergy in Agricultural Tractors

Conventionally, farmers used diesel engine tractors known for their high power. Tractors are now more efficient and can complete tasks with fewer power requirements due to advances in machine technologies and engines. The volatility in diesel prices hampers the budget management of farmers. Thus, the agricultural tractor industry witnesses a considerable demand for tractors that run on different fuels, such as plant-oil and biogas-powered tractors.

The Technological Advances in Tractor Technology

A new frontier of innovation emerged as agriculture met digital technology, opening various paths to a smart agricultural future. Tractor manufacturers are competitive, and companies constantly strive to innovate and ensure product differentiation at affordable prices. State-of-the-art technology-based tractors are currently available in the industry. GPS and remote sensing make farming more accurate and productive.

SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS

INSIGHTS BY HORSEPOWER

The 50-100 HP segment recorded a high France tractor market share in 2022. Medium-scale farmers in the region mostly rely on 50-100 HP tractors. These farmers generally own 10 to 20 acres of land. The increased use of 50-100 HP tractors is due to their ability to effectively carry out all tasks in the field, including soil preparation, irrigation, weeding, harvesting, and haulage. Farmers use these tractors to carry equipment and crops from fields to the marketplace. The major factor for the steady growth of the medium-power range of tractors is the increased business turnover among hobby and livestock farmers.

Segmentation by Horsepower

• Less Than 50 HP
• 50-100 HP
• 101-150 HP
• 151-200 HP
• 201-300 HP
• 301-400 HP
• Above 400 HP

INSIGHTS BY DRIVE TYPE

The France tractor market is dominated by low-range HP 2WD tractors. 2WD tractors are the most favored by farmers. The low relative cost of ownership, the sufficiency of features and haulage power, and convention make 2WD tractors more popular among farmers. Ease of driving and flexibility with light loads and in plain fields are major factors that boost the demand for two-wheel-drive tractors. John Deere, New Holland, and Fendt hold most of the 2-wheel drive tractors segment shares.
