Take away a lot of the farm workers and, surprise, farm owners don’t need to buy much new equipment.

foreign buyers of American farm products are turning to other sources...b/c of the crazy policies the Trump administration has implemented in the area of foreign trade. Once those customers are gone...they are not coming back soybeans, wheat and rice are being hit the hardest

yeah the farm worker thing is just one part of the problem. agricultural export drops due to our tariff wars, and Deere export drops due to the same, compound it.
