The European market of agricultural machinery remains
October 13, 2008
This study, carried out through direct surveys of enterprises of the countries that form the Cema, poses an interesting future for six months vista for the business of agricultural machinery. Above all, if we look at the behaviour of markets such as German, French or Italian, whose high turnout in this barometer, coupled with the strength of their manufacturers and markets gives a fairly accurate idea of future movements within the sector.
Month of September the satisfaction in the industry seems to follow in progress and feeling positive or very positive brings together nearly three-quarters of those polled, a proportion of 70-75 percent. A common effect to all the sections of the study included in the barometer is that rates will adjust as they pass the months according to the development of the market.
The margins are adjusting approaching the usual observed in previous campaigns. Thus, the prospect of growth, for the first time, meets only to 50 per cent of the participants, while the perception of maintenance of the market grows. The most pessimistic also increase. Nevertheless, 92 percent of respondents believed that the market will be presenting a positive, unless staying.
Production plans to certify this same view and, for continued growth in previous months almost three quarters of the respondents, in this last month however, shrank, thinking more in the maintenance of the productions. Participating companies maintain their employment plans with regular or fixed job stability, as in the storms, and a decrease of new recruitment.
