2025 has emerged as a pivotal year for China’s combine harvester industry, marked by unprecedented growth driven by policy support, technological innovation and expanding global footprint. As the backbone of modern agricultural mechanization, Chinese combine harvesters are breaking new ground.

As global food security demands escalate and agricultural modernization accelerates, the combine harvester market is poised for strong expansion in 2026, driven by technological innovation, policy support, and rising mechanization rates across emerging economies.

In the heart of modern agriculture, combine harvesters stand as indispensable workhorses, streamlining the harvesting process by integrating reaping, threshing, and winnowing into a single operation. The lifespan of these heavy-duty machines is not merely a technical detail but a critical factor influencing operational costs, productivity, and long-term profitability.

Global agricultural machinery markets are witnessing a significant shift toward high-efficiency equipment, with combine harvesters leading the charge in mechanization drives across continents. According to the latest industry reports, John Deere, the 188-year-old U.S.-based agricultural giant.

Agricultural mechanization has become the backbone of modern food production, and combine harvesters, as the "workhorses" of the field, play an irreplaceable role. Among the many technical parameters that farmers care about, the number of gears is often a key factor affecting operation efficiency.
