There were 1,091 tractors registered in the UK last month, or 15.8% more than in July 2016, according to the latest figures from the Agricultural Engineeers Association. This is the largest monthly increase recorded since March.
Since the start of the year, the UK has registered 7,233 tractors, a 14.4% increase on the first seven months of 2016. UK registrations have been higher than the previous year for 10 of the past 12 months.
The high numbers of new tractors purchased in the UK, points to the availability of equally large numbers of second-hand British tractors on the UK and Irish market.
