Tractor sales in India hit a rough patch, reflecting rural economic slowdown
Tractor sales in India, a key indicator of rural economic health, have dropped by 4% in the first nine months of the fiscal year. States like Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Telangana experienced significant declines, attributed to erratic weather conditions and lower agricultural output. However, Uttar Pradesh saw a 6% increase in tractor sales, but it couldn't offset the declines in other states.
