This South Asian nation (India) ranked second in the world for both rice and wheat production. Farmers are being pushed into farm mechanization by the additional farming operations needed to sustain the output. Also, due to the shifting manpower preference from purely farm-oriented activities to allied industries, there is a persistent scarcity of labor-intensive agricultural operations in India. Given that the labor in agriculture is shrinking and migrating to urban regions, rapid urbanization is also one of the main causes of the growth in agricultural mechanization. For instance, according to World Bank data, the proportion of individuals who are employed has been declining for a while. Agriculture accounted for 44% of all employment in 2017 but dropped to nearly 41% in 2020. Hence, it is projected that during the future years, the manpower scarcity would fuel and raise the need for farm equipment.

Rental sector is almost entirely unorganized, with local players dominating the market with their established connections.
