Highlighting the performance, Hemant Sikka, President – Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra, said, “We have sold 29,180 tractors in the domestic market during November 2022, a growth of 12 per cent over last year. Demand continued to remain strong in the post-festival period on account of the brisk sowing of Rabi crops, fuelled by high moisture content in the soil and healthy reservoir levels and is expected to beat last year’s record sowing of 70 million hectares. Procurement of Kharif crops has progressed well, bringing liquidity to the hands of farmers and this augur very well for the tractor industry’s growth. In the exports market, we have sold 1,348 tractors.”
