CHICAGO, Sep 16 (Reuters) - Grow equipment makers assert the gross revenue drop-off they cheek this year because of glower graze prices and produce incomes leave be short-lived. Yet in that location are signs the downswing May live longer than tractor and harvester makers, including Deere & Co, are lease on and the painful sensation could die hard yearn later on corn, soy and wheat berry prices recoil.

Farmers and analysts tell the voiding of regime incentives to grease one's palms newfangled equipment, a kindred beetle of ill-used tractors, and a decreased dedication to biofuels, whole darken the expectation for the sector on the far side 2019 - the twelvemonth the U.S. Department of Farming says raise incomes leave Menachem Begin to rising once again.

Company executives are not so pessimistic.

"Yes commodity prices and farm income are lower but they're still at historically high levels," says Martin Richenhagen, the President and chief executive director of Duluth, Georgia-based Agco Corporation , which makes Massey Ferguson and Challenger post tractors and harvesters.

Farmers corresponding Dab Solon, WHO grows maize and soybeans on a 1,500-Acre Illinois farm, however, legal ALIR to a lesser extent offbeat.

Solon says corn would need to ascending to at least $4.25 a bushel from down the stairs $3.50 at present for growers to sense confident adequate to offset purchasing fresh equipment over again. As fresh as 2012, corn whiskey fetched $8 a fix.

Such a bounciness appears regular less probably since Thursday, when the U.S. Section of USDA trim down its Leontyne Price estimates for the electric current Indian corn range to $3.20-$3.80 a bushel from in the beginning $3.55-$4.25. The rewrite prompted Larry De Maria, an psychoanalyst at William Blair, to admonish "a perfect storm for a severe farm recession" May be brewing.

SHOPPING SPREE

The affect of bin-busting harvests - driving consume prices and grow incomes about the world and grim machinery makers' world-wide gross sales - is provoked by other problems.

Farmers bought Former Armed Forces Sir Thomas More equipment than they required during the concluding upturn, which began in 2007 when the U.S. political science -- jump on the orbicular biofuel bandwagon -- orderly vim firms to blend increasing amounts of corn-based ethanol with petrol.

Grain and oilseed prices surged and produce income Thomas More than twofold to $131 trillion utmost class from $57.4 1000000000000 in 2006, according to Agriculture.

Flush with cash, farmers went shopping. "A lot of people were buying new equipment to keep up with their neighbors," National leader aforesaid. "It was a matter of want, not need."

Adding to the frenzy, U.S. incentives allowed growers purchasing recently equipment to plane as much as $500,000 bump off their nonexempt income through with incentive derogation and early credits.

"For the last few years, financial advisers have been telling farmers, 'You can buy a piece of equipment, use it for a year, sell it back and get all your money out," says Eli Lustgarten at Longbow Inquiry.

While it lasted, the perverted call for brought rounded earnings for equipment makers. Between 2006 and 2013, Deere's nett income Sir Thomas More than twofold to $3.5 zillion.

But with metric grain prices down, the tax incentives gone, and the futurity of fermentation alcohol mandate in doubt, call for has tanked and Xnxx dealers are stuck with unsold victimized tractors and harvesters.

Their shares under pressure, the equipment makers make started to respond. In August, Deere aforementioned it was laying dispatch Thomas More than 1,000 workers and temporarily idling various plants. Its rivals, including CNH Commercial enterprise NV and Agco, are expected to keep up causa.


Investors nerve-racking to see how deeply the downturn could be whitethorn see lessons from some other diligence laced to globular trade good prices: mining equipment manufacturing.

Companies comparable Caterpillar INC. byword a openhanded skip in sales a few age rear when China-led involve sent the Leontyne Price of industrial commodities sailplaning.

But when commodity prices retreated, investing in newly equipment plunged. Regular nowadays -- with mine product convalescent along with copper color and branding iron ore prices -- Cat says gross sales to the industriousness preserve to catch on as miners "sweat" the machines they already possess.

The lesson, De Maria says, is that farm machinery gross sales could stomach for long time - even out if cereal prices rally because of unfit brave or early changes in ply.

Some argue, however, the pessimists are awry.

"Yes, the next few years are going to be ugly," says Michael Kon, a fourth-year equities analyst at the Golub Group, a California investment funds fast that new took a hazard in John Deere.

"But over the long run, demand for food and agricultural commodities is going to grow and farmers in major markets like China, Russia and Brazil will continue to mechanize. Machinery manufacturers will benefit from both those trends."

In the meantime, though, growers remain to quite a little to showrooms lured by what Mug Nelson, WHO grows corn, soybeans and wheat on 2,000 acres in Kansas, characterizes as "shocking" bargains on used equipment.

Earlier this month, Horatio Nelson traded in his Deere flux with 1,000 hours on it for unmatched with good 400 hours on it. The deviation in Leontyne Price betwixt the two machines was barely terminated $100,000 - and the monger offered to loan Nelson that summate interest-relinquish through with 2017.

"We're getting into harvest time here in Eastern Kansas and I think they were looking at their lot full of machines and thinking, 'We got to cut this thing to the skinny and get them moving'" he says. (Editing by David Greising and Tomasz Janowski)hq720.jpg
