Parts for harvesting machinery including parts of threshing machinery straw or fodder balers and grass or hay mowers market in Portugal

Earlier Report Observations

The market for parts of harvesting machinery in Portugal, measured in value, contracted from 19 955 thousand US dollars in 2018 to 14 264 thousand US dollars in 2021. This period saw suppliers like Sparex significantly broaden their product range, adding over 100 new part lines in 2019, which increased the availability and choice of components for maintenance and repair.

Throughout these years, national online platforms such as Mascus and Agroline solidified their role as key channels, facilitating access to used machinery and spare parts. This digital shift supported a growing preference for second-hand and remanufactured parts among farmers, driven by cost-saving needs and a move towards circular economy practices in agriculture.

The market structure continued to adapt, with consistent emphasis on the supply of critical components like hydraulic systems from established players such as TVH Portugal. While the overall market value decreased, the expansion of digital sales and the sustained availability of parts for major machinery brands provided ongoing support for the agricultural sector's equipment servicing needs.
