drive prices up 5-15% for import items. The domestic MFG's have already increased prices 1-5% for summer orders. I was shocked to see a 17% increase on some of next season's hay tools prices coming out of Europe. I think it will be less than that first test price the MFG's are floating out there. The ASIAN markets have not been as quick to increase but the US $ is stronger there. If I was in the market for a Jap. or Korean CUT I'd pull the trigger. The Indian MFG like Mahindra will increase prices soon so there again pull the trigger if you're looking a an Indian Utility tractor. This is totally my opinion but often the wholesalers and importers get this information first before the retail public.
