Farm equipment includes machineries used for the production and maintenance of crops and agricultural livestock. Tractors are one of the essential farm equipment that serves several purposes in agriculture, including plowing, harrowing, and transportation of agricultural products. The harvesting equipment includes combine harvesters and threshers. The modern tractors are equipped with global positioning systems (GPS) and on-board computers. The expansion of precision farming has been positively impacting the growth of the farm equipment market. The farmers are up grading their traditional farm equipment with more advanced alternatives. The advent of do-it-yourself (DIY) repair tractors have also reduced the cost and hassle of tractor repairing, thus providing more comfort to farmers.

The government in different countries has been extending several subsidy programs to encourage farmers in their agricultural ventures. In 2004, China implemented subsidy policy for agricultural machineries, which increased over the years and now includes 12 agricultural categories. Around 175 types of agricultural machineries were subsidized by the Chinese government in 2015. During 2004 – 2012, the Chinese government dedicated $12 as subsidy for agricultural machineries. In order to promote food security in the country, the Chinese government has announced a subsidy scheme in 2015 for farm equipment, under which about 30% of the sales price of such equipment will be subsidized. The staple crop growers in the country, including sugar and cotton farmers will be prioritized.
