Agricultural Machinery & Equipment Wholesaling in Ireland Industry Data and Analysis
Over the five years through 2026, revenue for the Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Wholesaling industry is set to soar at a compound annual rate of 9.2% to €3 billion. The fallout of Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 hiked energy prices and sent inflation spiralling, squeezing farmers' margins through heightened costs of fertiliser, animal feed and general equipment. This weighed heavily on wholesalers' revenue, particularly as big-ticket purchases like tractors plummeted to the bottom of clients' priority lists. Poor weather in 2023 translated into poor crop yields in 2024, prompting farmers to cut back on machinery purchases. However, the EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) funding helps keep farmers afloat amid challenging times, providing just under €2 billion in support to Irish farmers between 2023 and 2027. This has helped to offset headwinds and drive agricultural equipment sales.
