Exactly. The boom/bust cycle of farm profits and subsidies means that in boom years there's a huge financial incentive to sink profits in equipment purchases. New trucks being a frequent target.

New equipment, land improvement (ripping, etc), storage assets (silos, dryers, etc), transport (road and rail) ... yes.
But tempered with slow careful and very picky judgement - farmers tend to go for good equipment.
I live in a rural area and have yet to met a farmer impressed by the cybertruck.
