The current & near term view of the industry is, however, grim with continued, significant pressures on farm incomes & profitability being the dominating theme emanating from an altered supply side economics with record crop production across key geographic regions impacting crop prices, farm incomes & agriculture machinery sales across industry OEMs directly & significantly.
