Moving Iron: Kicking Off the New Year with Market Stabilization Signals

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.
