Annual Strategy Dossier - 2018 - World's 6 Leading Agriculture Equipment Manufacturers - Strategic Focus, Key Strategies & Plans, SWOT, Trends & Growth Opportunities, Market Outlook - John Deere, CNH, AGCO, CLAAS, SDF, Kubota
The Global agriculture equipment market is gaining traction marked by steady improvement in demand as agriculture commodity prices gain strength with the global grain demand and supply levels nearing the much anticipated equilibrium for the 2017-18 farming season after a long time with a marginal increase in global grain supplies. The demand for agriculture equipment had been rattled by an oversupply driven market scenario over the past 4 consecutive years with the demand having bottomed out in 2017, as confirmed by most industry OEMs, who are gearing up for the upswing after a prolonged period of operating at sub optimal pace with focus on ramping up production rates and fine tuning supply chains to efficiently meet increasing demand levels and avoid logistical gaps. The OEMs are also renewing their product portfolios in alignment with the market upturn through new product introductions incorporating cutting edge technologies and features focused on enhanced performance as well as productivity while optimizing the total cost of ownership.
The improving market scenario is encouraging replacement of agriculture equipment, in-line with improving farm incomes. The outlook for the agriculture sector through 2020, thus, is bullish with low plantation intent in North America for 2018, difficult weather conditions in South America translating into crop reductions and the resurgence of global crude oil prices which are likely to stimulate demand for food stock based biofuels which have seen sluggish growth over the recent years. Consequently, the Agriculture price index and grain prices are projected to go up in 2018 and 2019 with a tight supply side dynamics likely to drive prices over near term. However, increasing energy costs with the surge in crude oil prices; projected to be sustained through 2018; are likely to impact cost of production directly (energy) as well as indirectly (chemicals & fertilizers) pushing the agriculture commodity prices upward. Additionally, China’s potential imposition of countervailing duty on agricultural imports from the U.S. may hamper global commodity prices going forward.
Against this backdrop, this annual 2018 edition of the report series analyses the Overarching Strategic Focus & Priorities and provides comprehensive insights into the Key Strategies & Plans being conceptualized, formulated & implemented by the World’s 6 leading Agriculture Equipment Manufacturers for the near to medium term horizon as they gear up to meet the inflection in global demand for agriculture equipment.
