Hi Mahmoud Rezad, Since we carry information about country profiles, we cannot give you stats for specific tractor manufacturers. However, you may get that information in the Directory of Tractors Manufacturers, Tractors Exporters, Transport Vehicles.

Insofar as use of tractors in African countries goes, Algeria has the highest number of tractors in use, followed by Egypt and South Africa. In terms of tractor concentration, that is number of tractors per crop land area, Egypt leads, while in the number of tractors in use per population Libya leads.
