That dollar amount results from an 11.7% rise from $62.6 billion 5 years earlier during 2021.
Year over year, the value of exported tractors fell by -5% compared to $73.6 billion starting from 2024.
The top 5 most valuable exporters of tractors are Germany, Mexico, mainland China, Netherlands and France. Combined, those 5 major suppliers sold over half (54.1%) of exported tractors sold in 2025. Such a high percentage indicates a relatively concentrated group of international tractor sellers.
From a continental perspective, suppliers in European countries sold the highest dollar worth of exported tractors during 2025 with shipments valued at $42.8 billion or 61.2% of the global total.
