    Moving Iron: Ringing in the New Year with a Market Reality Check

    On this episode of Moving Iron, Casey Seymour and Greg Peterson dig into the shifting foundations of the agricultural equipment market and what they mean for dealers, farmers, and anyone tied to iron. From stabilizing auction prices to longer trade cycles and a shrinking supply of late-model machines, the ag equipment landscape is undergoing a structural reset. The conversation breaks down how post-COVID pricing, depreciation changes, and high-hour inventories are reshaping buyer behavior and dealer strategies—pushing more attention toward six- to ten-year-old equipment and well-maintained older iron. Casey and Greg also explore the ripple effects of rising new equipment prices, inventory imbalances, and how ownership economics are forcing farms to run equipment longer and consolidate smarter. Beyond iron values, the episode tackles transportation and logistics realities, including why asset-based carriers matter, how to properly vet and insure haulers, and the growing regulatory hurdles around CDL licensing. Add in generational challenges, digital buying trends, and a look ahead to a market correction stretching into 2026, and this episode delivers a clear-eyed view of where the ag equipment business stands—and where it’s headed. I f you want to understand the market forces impacting the price of your iron and how to adapt to the new normal, buckle up…it’s time to move some iron. 🚜 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Moving Iron: Simpler Machines, Tougher Markets – Emissions, Inventory, and Value

    In this episode of Moving Iron, Casey Seymour and Greg Peterson dive deep into one of the most heated conversations in ag equipment today: the push for simpler, more repair-friendly machinery in the face of tightening emissions regulations and shifting political winds. Sparked by recent comments from President Trump, the debate has farmers, manufacturers, and dealers all asking the same question—what would ‘simple’ even look like in today’s regulatory and economic landscape? Casey and Greg explore why many farmers are still willing to pay premiums for older, less complex models and how emissions-related retrofit costs—sometimes exceeding $45,000—are reshaping buying decisions. They break down how a move toward emissions-free factory equipment could upend used equipment values and shake financial balance sheets across the industry. From auction trends and regional spec preferences to the dealer strategies shaped by tightening inventories, this episode gives you a clear picture of where the iron market stands—and where it’s headed.

    Moving Iron: Shifting Demand as Tweeners Give Way to Bigger Horsepower

    In this episode of Moving Iron with Casey Seymour and Greg Peterson, the guys break down a fast-shifting ag equipment market where inventory is tightening but prices remain surprisingly firm. Despite last year’s steep declines, auction prices for big iron—like the 8R 410 and 9RX 640—slipped only about 3% in 2023, even as the supply of these models at auction fell by more than two-thirds. The crew digs into what this means for dealers, buyers, and farmers navigating an equipment landscape where scarcity premiums may become the new normal. Casey and Greg explore the rising demand for high-horsepower machines and how “tweener” tractors are being squeezed as producers shift to larger models. They also look at the rapid speed of tech adoption in agriculture—fueled by connectivity, data, and social channels—and agriculture’s continued role as a technology leader, from early GPS integration to today’s precision tools. Market analyst Sean joins the discussion to unpack USDA reports, corn price swings, and how policy decisions and year-end buying strategies are shaping commodity values. With some skepticism surrounding the next USDA release due to the government shutdown, the team points to the January report as the one to watch. Buckle up—it’s time to move some iron.
