UK Agricultural Tractor Registrations – March 2026

The UK’s Agricultural Engineers Association reported on Thursday 2nd April that this years tractor registrations were as follows:

Month :                       2,134 Units   +45.6% change (compared with March 2025)

Year to Date:             2,992 Units   +34.3% change (compared with January-March 2025)

Having been below the seasonal average throughout 2025 and in the opening two months of this year, agricultural tractor registrations performed much better in March. A total of 2,134 machines were logged during the month, up by nearly half, compared with March 2025, and slightly above the average for the time of year over the previous five years. March is usually the peak month for registrations, as the start of the fieldwork season coincides with the end of the tax year and the introduction of a new registration mark. This year seems to be no exception and the monthly total was the highest for three years, as was the number of machines registered in the first quarter, which reached nearly 3,000.
