Unit sales of 4WD  tractors grew in both the U.S. and Canada in November, continuing a strong final quarter of 2023, according to the latest data from the Assn. of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM).

In the U.S., the November data shows that 4WD tractors grew year-over-year 72.6%, the only segment to see growth for the month. Year-to-date, 4WD tractor sales are up 38.2%, leading all segments in unit sales growth. In Canada, 4WD unit sales were up 84.8% for the month, and 41.5% year-to-date.

“November is historically a slow month for tractor and combine sales,” said Curt Blades, senior vice president, industry sectors and product leadership at the Assn. of Equipment Manufacturers. “We are happy to see the year-to-date sale’s strength in the larger equipment market and remain optimistic for the long-term.”

Overall unit sales of U.S. tractors are down 4.7% compared to sales in November 2022, while combine sales finished 11.3% below this time last year. Canadian tractor sales finished the month up 1%. Combines were also down for the month, falling 12.8%.
