Since the summer of last year, the segment of tractor units has been experiencing a steady decline in volumes in all subsegments. None of them is showing positive dynamics. Imports have suffered the most — the arrival of these strategically important machines for the economy has fallen to a record low. A small increase is only due to the sale of new tractors, but the overall situation remains negative. Given the average age of tractors on the domestic market (15 years) and imported used machines (9.5 years), with the current dynamics, further aging of the fleet is expected.
