Mar 2601:05:14Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Casey and Greg break down a red-hot used equipment market that continues to defy broader economic signals. Premium, low-hour machines are commanding record prices at auction, while dealers are quickly running out of 5–10-year-old inventory.

But with retirements increasing and demographics shifting, what does the future buyer pool look like? Plus, the conversation turns to extreme weather—where drought, wind, and wildfires are already creating major challenges across ag country.

Mar 1900:53:46Tap to summarizeSeasonality is driving more than just the weather—it’s moving iron across the country in a big way. In this episode of Moving Iron, Casey Seymour breaks down how tractors, combines, and equipment are shifting region to region—and why those movements matter more than ever in today’s market. From major differences in regional specs across the Northern Plains, High Plains, and Corn Belt to the push toward more standardized equipment, the guys dig into how manufacturers and buyers are adapting in a changing landscape. But legacy equipment and localized preferences still present real challenges. They also tackle the bigger forces at play: how $7 corn reshapes buying behavior overnight, why rising equipment costs and tighter farm incomes are fueling more auctions, and what the lack of a new Farm Bill means for the road ahead. Market analyst Sean Hackett joins the conversation to unpack extreme volatility across commodities—driven by Federal Reserve decisions, rising energy costs, geopolitical tensions, and unpredictable global trade dynamics. From U.S.-China soybean uncertainty to Brazil’s growing competition, the global picture is anything but stable. If you’re trying to understand where equipment values—and the ag economy—are headed next, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

Transcribe →Moving Iron: Weather Risks, Red-Hot Auctions, and the Rising Value of Used Iron
Mar 1201:31:14Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Moving Iron, Casey Seymour and Greg Peterson break down the forces shaping today’s ag equipment market. From emerging drought concerns in parts of the Midwest to the ripple effects of El Niño forecasts, weather remains a key wildcard for farmers heading into the spring season. The conversation also dives into the booming auction market, where record prices for vintage tractors and strong demand for late-model machines are being fueled by tight inventory and aggressive buyers. Casey and Greg discuss how many farmers are adapting by downsizing or upgrading within the same model line instead of buying brand-new equipment—making well-maintained used iron more valuable than ever. They also explore how retrofits and component upgrades are influencing resale value, why proper documentation can make or break a sale, and how auctions have become a go-to strategy for moving older machinery in today’s competitive market.
