“We have sold 22,329 tractors in the domestic market during January with a growth of 7 percent over last year. The tractor demand is likely to see positive momentum, led by the expectations of a good Rabi output and the government's renewed focus on rural sector through higher allocation as announced in the Union Budget,” M&M Farm Equipment Sector President Rajesh Jejurikar said.
