The growth in tractor registrations recorded in Italy in 2025 is not enough to bring back the smiles on the faces of the national agricultural mechanization industry
Last year’s sour note was the decline in exports, which on average account for 70 percent of the turnover of Italian companies in the sector. According to ISTAT foreign trade data updated to October 2025, agricultural machinery exports fell by four and eight percent compared to the same period in 2024, driven primarily by a 34 percent drop in exports to the United States.
Because of this, the United States also went from being the leading to the third-largest market for “Made in Italy” machinery, surpassed by France and Germany, which became the leading and second-largest markets, respectively, despite also posting declines of seven and two percent year-on-year.
