"We have sold 33,562 tractors in the domestic market during January 2021 with a growth of 50 percent over last year. Tractor demand continues to be strong with expansion in Rabi acreage, very high reservoir levels and higher liquidity in the hands of farmers with timely Kharif procurement,” said Hemant Sikka, President – Farm Equipment Sector, M&M.
Demand is expected to remain robust on account of these factors and higher allocations, he said adding that in the exports market, the company sold 1,216 tractors, registering a growth of 55 per cent over last year.
