In this most unusual year of high farm incomes, rising inputs and scarce supply of nearly everything, Farm Equipment and Ag Equipment Intelligence conducted a 48-hour survey from November 15-17 on the year-end situation, which drew 257 growers and 80 dealers.

The Sandhills Equipment Values Index released on Nov. 8 shows used farm equipment values up considerably in October 2021 vs. October 2020.

This year’s Farm Equipment Dealer Business Outlook & Trends survey saw significant changes relative to last year’s survey. Projections for next year’s new and used equipment sales were up compared to the 2021 survey, as well as forecasts for early orders and equipment price increases.
