Nebraska’s largest John Deere dealership says they’re facing a shortage of tractors because they’re seeing more farmers upgrade their equipment.
Kent Kirchhoff, vice president of marketing and sales at AKRS Equipment Solutions, tells Brownfield, “In some cases, producers can see that their investment years and years ago had very little cost of ownership for the use on their farm.”
He tells Brownfield they’re seeing the highest demand for tractors for a certain model year and number of hours.
