The Agricultural Engineers Association (AEA) has published the latest figures for UK agricultural tractor registrations.

In January, 644 agricultural tractors (over 50hp) were registered in the UK – an increase of nearly 30% compared to the same month last year.
It is also the highest total for the opening month of the year since 2019.
Despite a relatively low figure for December 2022, registrations over the last four months were 10% higher than the year before.
The recent growth is perhaps an indication that the disruptions to supply chains which led to longer lead times for tractors and other machinery are starting to ease, AEA said.
