The Africa utility tractor market of USD XX million in 2017 is expected to reach USD XX million by 2022 at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. Utility tractors are high power operators, with compact design, and easy to use multiple functions, and are used for various purposes such as agriculture, landscaping, plowing, grounds keeping etc. The African continent is the largest importer of agriculture machinery and tractors.
Market Dynamics
The major driver for the market is increasing demand for agriculture products as a result of growing population, extensive agricultural land area, a boost in imported products, and innovation in farm equipment technology with high efficiency and moderate price range. In Africa, government support and subsidies for promoting agriculture productivity is very low due to an economic imbalance in the region, which is a major restraining factor to the market. Huge import and other taxes, high cost and inflation in grain prices as a result of a low economy in the continent are also constraining the market.
