The Germany haying and forage machinery market size is estimated to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of market is attributed to increased demand for forage and other feed by the cattle sector, as well as a labor shortfall.
Despite a high population density agriculture occupies half of the national land. In around 270,000 agricultural firms, almost a million people generate items worth approximately 50 billion Euros each year.

Increasing worries about food security are encouraging farmers to employ agricultural haying and forage machines to satisfy growing demands. Furthermore, the market is expanding as a result of the increasing trend of precision farming which supports in farm sustainability and allows agricultural haying and forage gear to be more adaptable.
Hay is forage or vegetable that has been cut, dried, stored, and made into cattle feed. It is used as feed for animals that cannot graze due to adverse weather conditions such as drought or animals that are kept in stables. Hay machines are used to cut crops and then store them in bales or silage. Forage is the plant material used by cattle to eat grass. Feed technology is widely used to harvest feed grains. A small part of the global agricultural machinery market.
Hay and forage technology are used to meet the growing demand for plant-based feeds. Growing demand for agricultural automation may promote the development of crop and feed market during the forecast period. Traditional agricultural techniques such as farming, tillage, and planters are being replaced by various modern agricultural tools. Modern agricultural machinery, such as sprayers, harvesters, hay and forage harvesters, combine harvesters, irrigation and plant cultivation equipment’s are used in various processes to improve overall yield and quality.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Increasing food demand is projected to boost the market during the forecast period.
- Increasing government support for farmers in terms of loan for buying machinery and other equipment for farming is anticipated to boost the market during the forecast period.
- Rapid growth of the food industry due to increasing population and consumer demand is major factors fueling the market.
- Increasing cultivation of crops and labor shortage in region are anticipated to fuel the market in the coming years.
- Growing consumption of haying equipment by livestock industry and efficient farming techniques is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.

Germany Haying and Forage Machinery Market Segment Insights
The forage harvesters’ segment is projected to represent a large market share
Based on types, the Germany haying and forage machinery market is divided into mowers, balers, forage harvesters, and others. The mowers segment is expected to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period. A mower does not require much power, so a smaller tractor can be used to operate it. There are different types of lawn mowers for cutting grass and forage plants, such as cylinder type, piston type, and rotary And flail mowers.
According to the different driving sources, lawn mowers can be divided into hand, horse, tractor, and self-propelled lawn mowers. Lawn mowers can be divided into towed, semi-trailer, and integrated lawn mowers. On the other hand, the harvesters segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to farmers' growing preference for harvesters to increase production and limit their dependence on agricultural labor. In addition, the harvester has high productivity and fuel economy, which is expected to be one of the major factors driving product demand.
