Agricultural Machinery & Equipment Wholesaling in Ireland
Agricultural machinery and equipment wholesalers are susceptible to fluctuations in business confidence, climate conditions and the real effective exchange rate. According to the CSO, the number of farms in Ireland fell by 3.4% over the decade through 2020, but the average farm size grew by 2.2%, as did the number of cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry (10.7%, 16.3%, 4.4% and 50.8%, respectively). The growing number of livestock has boosted sales of animal farming products, while the expansion in farm size has lifted sales of high-ticket items like harvesters.
