Domestic tractor sales in April 2022 were at 7,676 tractors registering a growth of 20.2 percent against 6,386 tractors sold in April 2021. With the ongoing harvesting in many states, better crop price realization as against the Minimum Support Price (MSP) due to current global geo-political environment, prediction of normal monsoon with likelihood of good rainfall in June and July leading to possible timely sowing this year, we expect next two months may witness strong retail sales.
