The compressor and the tractor are the most sold agricultural implements through OLX between January and August of this year. This is according to a survey by the largest marketplace for classifieds of used products, cars and properties in Brazil, which also shows that each of them represents 12% of sales of items in this segment.
“Generators are the agricultural product whose demand grew the most on OLX in the first eight months of the year, compared to the same period in 2023, with a 137% increase. Excavators were the second with the highest variation, with 113%, followed by wheel loaders, with 92%. These and other indicators illustrate the dynamism of the platform, which is democratic, as it allows agribusiness professionals to advertise and find second-hand items with good cost-benefit,” says the VP of Automobiles and Consumer Goods at the OLX Group, Flávio Passos.
